What is unique about Introduction to Biomedical Data Science?

We believe this new textbook is unique for the following reasons:

• There is no similar textbook available dealing with this subject matter to the best of our knowledge

• Because the textbook was self-published it is very current (mid-2019)

• We used real healthcare data for examples and exercises

• YouTube videos are embedded in most chapters for supplemental information

• Appendix C has data exercises for most chapters

• We use Data World as a data repository

• Knowledge of higher math and programming languages is not necessary

• We begin with spreadsheet tips and tricks and end with artificial intelligence

• Chapter 11 is devoted to just resources

• Instructors can download an electronic copy of the book, the Instructor Manual and PowerPoints after first registering on the Instructor page
