This lesson gives an introduction to the Mathematics chapter of Datalabcc's Foundations in Data Science series.
This lesson serves a primer on elementary algebra.
This lesson provides a primer on linear algebra, aiming to demonstrate how such operations are fundamental to many data science.
In this lesson, users will learn about linear equation systems, as well as follow along some practical use cases.
This talk gives a primer on calculus, emphasizing its role in data science.
This lesson clarifies how calculus relates to optimization in a data science context.
This lesson covers Big O notation, a mathematical notation that describes the limiting behavior of a function as it tends towards a certain value or infinity, proving useful for data scientists who want to evaluate their algorithms' efficiency.
This lesson serves as a primer on the fundamental concepts underlying probability.
Serving as good refresher, this lesson explains the maths and logic concepts that are important for programmers to understand, including sets, propositional logic, conditional statements, and more.

This lecture covers the emergence of cognitive science after the Second World War as an interdisciplinary field for studying the mind, with influences from anthropology, cybernetics, and artificial intelligence.
This lecture provides an introduction to Plato’s concept of rationality and Aristotle’s concept of empiricism, and the enduring discussion between rationalism and empiricism to this day.
This lecture covers different perspectives on the study of the mental, focusing on the difference between Mind and Brain.
This lecture covers the three big questions: What is the universe?, what is life?, and what is consciousness?
This lecture explains the concept of federated analysis in the context of medical data, associated challenges. The lecture also presents an example of hospital federations via the Medical Informatics Platform.
This lesson continues with the second workshop on reproducible science, focusing on additional open source tools for researchers and data scientists, such as the R programming language for data science, as well as associated tools like RStudio and R Markdown. Additionally, users are introduced to Python and iPython notebooks, Google Colab, and are given hands-on tutorials on how to create a Binder environment, as well as various containers in Docker and Singularity.
This lesson contains both a lecture and a tutorial component. The lecture (0:00-20:03 of YouTube video) discusses both the need for intersectional approaches in healthcare as well as the impact of neglecting intersectionality in patient populations. The lecture is followed by a practical tutorial in both Python and R on how to assess intersectional bias in datasets. Links to relevant code and data are found below.
This is a hands-on tutorial on PLINK, the open source whole genome association analysis toolset. The aims of this tutorial are to teach users how to perform basic quality control on genetic datasets, as well as to identify and understand GWAS summary statistics.
This is a tutorial on using the open-source software PRSice to calculate a set of polygenic risk scores (PRS) for a study sample. Users will also learn how to read PRS into R, visualize distributions, and perform basic association analyses.
This lesson is an overview of transcriptomics, from fundamental concepts of the central dogma and RNA sequencing at the single-cell level, to how genetic expression underlies diversity in cell phenotypes.
