Happy (almost!) End of Year!

Hello everyone! The semester is winding down, and so are we.  We wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone for an INCREDIBLE semester!  We had an unprecedented number of clients and found ourselves challenged with all manner of new and exciting statistical techniques!

As the semester comes to a close, we are finishing up with our clients, and we are sad to say, will soon not be taking any more.  Please send us any last minute questions you may have, for soon, we will close our doors for the summer!

Thank you again for a GREAT semester, and good luck with all of your statistical summer adventures!

Statistical mistakes are all too common in any scientific discipline. Like any tool, statistics can be misused, both deliberately and by accident. The important lesson is to understand how statistical mistakes happen, why they happen, and educate yourself to recognize and prevent them from happening to you.

Statistics Done Wrong is a website run by Alex Reinhart, a doctoral student in statistics at Carnegie Mellon University, that addresses common statistical mistakes in scientific disciplines. Don't be a statistic, check it out today:
