This is an interactive website that provides a non-technical introduction to the data analysis tools with R for non-Statistics-major students. It is originally conceived as a support to the course "Data Analytics for Pharmaceutical Sciences" at the University of Geneva.

Applications of these statistical methods are provided in the context of Pharmaceutical Sciences.

This ebook contains an overview of the basic procedures to adequately approach a time series analysis.
