Stats@Liverpool Tutors

Stats@liverpool tutor Anders Life Sciences

Anders - Life Sciences

I am a third-year PhD student in the Institute of Life Course and Medical Sciences. My research involves a technique called proteomics, which allows for the analysis of proteins in biological samples. I have previously studied biochemistry and statistics during my undergraduate and master's degree. I am able to help students with general statistics advice as well as more specific tools, such as the R programming language, data visualisation, SPSS, Origin, and bioinformatic analysis.

 

stats@liverpool tutor Elena

Elena – Psychology

I am a third year PhD student in the Department of Psychology, specializing in EEG, perception and alcohol research. I completed my undergrad in Psychology and my masters in Statistical research methods at the University of Liverpool so I have knowledge of the statistics needed for these courses.

My primary tools include R for statistical test, data visualizations and simulations, MATLAB for implementations of algorithms, SPSS for simple statistical tests and Excel for data organization. Additionally, I have extensive experience in using G*Power and R for determining sample sizes and using Python for experimental control and data visualisation.

Although I come from a Psychology background, I am happy to meet with students across all disciplines. I can help with general statistical advice as well as help with specific analyses, data visualizations, sample size calculations and data simulations.

 

Ieva – Neuroimaging

I'm a third-year PhD researcher specializing in neuroimaging, with a focus on studying language pathways in the brain using MRI. My expertise lies in computational analysis, and I work with a range of tools daily to decipher complex data. My academic journey began with a background in Genetics and Molecular Biology during my undergraduate years, followed by a Master's degree in Neuroimaging. This diverse background equips me to assist you in various fields, from bioinformatics and genomics to psychology and neuroscience.  

I'm your go-to guide for quantitative research questions. I'll assist you in selecting the most suitable statistical tests for your specific research needs. My primary tools include R for statistical tests and data visualizations, MATLAB for matrix operations, SPSS for a wide range of statistical tests and visuals, Excel for data organization and basic stats, and Python with numpy and pandas for data analysis. 

Whether you're a fellow researcher or a student seeking statistical support, I'm here to simplify complex concepts and make statistics approachable.

 

Stats@liverpool tutor Lilly

Lilly – Environmental Sciences

I am a second-year PhD student within the School of Environmental Sciences, where I am researching sentence severity across the courts in England and Wales. I have a background in geographic data science and an undergraduate degree in criminology, so I have knowledge of coding and statisitcs in both these areas. I am happy to provide support across all disciplines, using tools like R for data visualisations, geographic mapping, regressions, and statistical tests. I can also provide similar help with Python, as well as general use of SPSS.

Luke – Economics

My name is Luke, I'm a second-year PhD student in economics. For economics students I can help with any form of econometrics, for non-economics students I can help with statistical relationships like regressions, creating and interpreting outputs from statistical software. I'm most proficient in Stata and EViews, to a lesser extent Python. For anyone who wants to make their written work look more professional, I can also teach you to code in LaTex.

Matthew – Management and Medicine

I am a 2nd year PhD student within the Management School using statistical models to forecast in-play football matches and I also have a Master's in Medical Statistics. I am more than happy to provide statistical support with all subjects across a range of statistical programs including R, STATA, Python and Minitab. If you have any queries understanding statistics from your classes, I can take the time to clearly provide an explanation to give you a push in the right direction!

 

stats@liverpool tutor - Meagan

Meagan – Medical Sciences

I am a third year PhD student studying cell fate determination in early mammalian development. My research involves traditional laboratory science mixed with computational data analysis. This has included anything from the analysis of large gene expression datasets from publicly available sources to generating my own quantitative data from the confocal microscope.

Whether it’s comparing statistical tests or optimising and understanding your data analysis, I am here to help with any of your research questions. I primarily use Python but am also proficient in R and Excel so if you have a question we can find a solution together!

 

Stats@liverpool tutor - Noel

Noel – Computer Science

I have a dual role at Liverpool University studying for a PhD and teaching students, both in relation to Computer Science in which I am a PGCE qualified teacher. I can assist you with advice on learning the Python programming language for importing, cleansing, processing and displaying data in a fast, flexible and useful manner. I am also experienced in other programming languages such as C++, JavaScript and using powerful Python libraries such as MatPlotLib to generate graphs or other visual representations and NumPy to provide many useful analysis tools.

I believe my teaching style and communication skills will be helpful and effective in identifying approaches in statistical analysis that will support your work and progress.
