Student mentoring
Building on our workshops and lectures, this service was designed in response to students frequently requesting follow-up statistical guidance in their research. Recognising that statistical rigor and research integrity are skills developed over time, Gosselin Databio offers targeted mentoring for students, especially ⎻but not restricted to⎻ those in the critical first or second years of their doctorate. This personalised program includes two to four in-person meetings annually, covering everything from reviewing the planned research design to advices on statistical methodology and reproducibility assessments. Special discounts are available for students who participate in our workshops.

The guidance
The meetings are 1-3 hour long discussions, where we discuss various issues including (but not excluding any other possible relevant topics):
- Study design optimisation
- Planning of future analyses
- Critical assessment of the literature
- Interim evaluation of past analyses
- Result interpretation
- Study limitations
- Data presentation
- Publication strategy
- Preregistration
- Open data
- Review of draft manuscripts
- Responses to reviewers
