In part 3 of Think Fast’s deep dive into what an academic lab is like we are moving onto the hardcore analysis. We talk with another researcher who is best trying to find out how to make predictive models of how people go through the therapies provided by Prof. Teachman’s lab and other interventions people may be using. It is not always obvious from the outset how a study needs to be analysed; you should have an idea but also expect to be surprised. This time we talk about how new data can mean new training and building up ideas that other researchers haven’t thought of before. Which when you think about it is the entire idea of being a scientist.
