We wish to preserve as much of the learning experience as possible in a virtual setting. Therefore, to ease the transition of converting the class content for offering on Zoom, enrollment in 2020 will be limited to graduate students in the Biomedical Informatics (BMI) Program. I have chosen to do this so that we can maintain an effective learning experience for those students for whom this is a required class. 
  
-  - differentiate between and give examples of categories of research questions and the study designs used to address them. +If you are not a BMI graduate student, thank you for understandingI look forward to meeting you in the regular offering of the class next Autumn.
-  - describe common healthcare data sources and their relative advantages and limitations. +
