Episode description

StatQuest started out as an attempt to explain statistics to his former co-workers – who were all genetics researchers at UNC-Chapel Hill. According to Josh Starmer, they did amazing experiments, but they didn’t always know what to do with the data they generated. That was his job. But he wanted them to understand that what he did wasn’t magic – it was actually quite simple. It only seemed hard because it was wrapped up in confusing terminology and typically communicated using equations. He found that if he stripped away the terminology and communicated the concepts using pictures, it became easy to understand
