Presentation
The proposed course is an evolution of the "Statistics for Health Sciences" course of the "Mathematics" mention of the previous period. The Master 1 becomes common with the course "Epidemiology, Health Data, Biostatistics - Data Analyst for Life Sciences" with which there was already a high degree of mutualization during the previous period.
Its objective remains to provide students coming mainly from the Health curriculum and biology degrees with a dual competence in biostatistics. This double skill is particularly sought after on the job market, as shown by the insertion rate figures at the end of the course. Our students are real assets in a team since they have the necessary culture in biology/health to master the problematic of interest and the competence to analyze the data in an adequate way. This adequate analysis of data in biology/health is a major issue for research in the years to come because the data are increasingly voluminous and numerous and errors in their analysis can lead (and have already led in the past) to erroneous or non-reproducible conclusions that discredit the entire research field. Real expertise in data analysis is therefore essential today to answer complex biological questions. This objective is the "DNA" of our training and will continue for the next period.
In addition, the first objective of the change of mention is to be consistent with the desired origin of our students: the situation in the "Mathematics" mention was misleading since we will only recruit students from the health and biology streams to offer them a double competence in biostatistics. However, these students will not naturally seek their master's degree in a "Mathematics" field. Our legibility was therefore compromised by this attachment.
In terms of evolution, it corresponds to a need concerning the target public which will be made up of health students and students in reorientation coming from the Specific Health Access Course (PASS) and the Health Access License (LAS), being set up within the framework of the reform of the PACES.
In addition, we have developed the content of the training to enable health and biology students to acquire skills that are ever closer to the job market in biostatistics: introduction of the Python language, reinforcement of lessons in Machine Learning and artificial intelligence. This evolution is also consistent with the change of mention because the health applications of these methods are increasingly numerous (biomarker research, personalized medicine, etc.).
