Dark Peak Analytics

“This course was the best training I’ve attended. It covered many areas essential to understanding the content, including how to structure your model, vectorization, a variety of needed commands and their efficiency, creating custom functions, combining functions to create a model, plotting data, and so much more.”

Aaron Winn, Associate Professor, University of Illinois

“This course was excellent. The content is clear and well-structured, and the pace of teaching is just right, making even complex microsimulation concepts easy to grasp. I especially appreciated the practical exercises, they really helped me connect the dots and feel confident applying what I learned. Overall, it’s a fantastic course that's helped me learn so much, and I'd happily recommend it to anyone.”

Harry Hill, PhD, Senior Research Fellow University of Sheffield

“By a long way the best course I’ve ever done. The codebase alone is worth it - every code chunk was thoroughly explained in the textbook, R files, and instructional videos. If you’re looking to learn microsimulation in R, this course is the only one you need.” ”

Edifofon Akpan, PhD Student at University of Sheffield

“The Dark Peak Analytics team is second to none. Very helpful, insightful, and friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to advance their HEOR skillsets in R. ”

Michael Kim, Takeda/UIC

“This microsimulation in R is really well structured and informative course. Especially, they provide you a bunch of codes that you can run on your own program. I definitely recommend this course to those who are interested in applying this knowledge to their study. ”

Sodam Kim, University of Illinois

“The course was great! The slides and explanations were clear. The exercises with solutions were really helpful, and loads of example code were made available. Having access to the recordings and the online book made the whole learning experience easier. ”

Rami Cosulich, Post-doc at University of Sheffield

“Really accessible, loved the content with practice questions. This made it far less daunting for a complete beginner like myself.”

Delegate from NHS Scotland

“Thank you! I really enjoyed the course. I found having the textbook super helpful to read ahead of sessions, and the code clinics were useful to be able to more freely ask questions. The facilitators were so really good and appreciated their responsiveness to questions and comments in the chat. Impressed about live coding skills!”

“The format worked well (mix of taught sessions and code clinics), tutors were all great and very knowledgeable and engaging. Really appreciated being able to get feedback on my code. I've come away feeling a lot more confident, and also of how much left I have to learn.”

Delegate from FTSE100 Pharma

“The main tutor Rob was an excellent teacher, very knowledgeable and explains things very clearly at a good pace. The course material and resources were also excellent. As a beginner, I found the approach of teaching base R before learning package functions much easier to grasp. I have been on previous R courses for beginners and left in a state of confusion. ”
