Join us on this free 1-day online course to learn about the key statistical tools for summarising data and making statistical comparisons of data sets.
Essential Statistics:
Ensuring the quality of analytical data is a vital aspect of the work of an analytical scientist. The effective planning of experiments and evaluation of data requires an understanding of statistics. Knowledge of statistics is also needed to carry out method validation, evaluate measurement uncertainty and implement quality control. Whether developing test methods, optimising processes or assessing the efficacy of biofilm controls, objective evaluation of data is required.
Who should attend?
The Essential Statistics course will be of interest to anyone involved in biofilm analysis and control who wants to learn more about how to carry out effective data analysis and interpretation.

The National Measurement Laboratory (NML), hosted at LGC, delivers underpinning chemical and biological measurement science for the UK and forms part of the UK’s National Measurement System (NMS). The NML is the Designated Institute for chemical and biological measurement and supports the work of the Government Chemist, a unique statutory function that provides expert opinion and advice to the government. The NML has over 25 years’ experience in developing and delivering training to support laboratories in ensuring the quality of their measurement data.
The Biofilm Alliance is an Innovate UK-funded network dedicated to bringing biofilms to regulatory attention. Led by four partner organisations – the National Biofilms Innovation Centre, Manchester Metropolitan University, Industrial Microbiological Services Limited, and Swansea University – the Biofilm Alliance unites experts from academia, industry, metrology, regulatory agencies, and standards organisations. Its mission is to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and effective regulation, fostering collaboration and driving innovation in biofilm mitigation and control technologies. The Biofilm Alliance focuses on four key sectors: industrial processes, water systems, food, and the built environment.
