This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology, under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), provides $241,585 to Iowa State University to synthesize 25 years of research in permutational biometry and develop new analytical tools for biological data analysis. Specifically, the investigators will produce a full-length book and web-based tutorials integrating their work in resampling of residuals in a permutation procedure, permutation-based effect sizes, permutation-based pairwise comparisons, and permutation-based evaluation of independent or correlated datasets. This synthesis will provide a comprehensive learning platform combining thorough explanation of permutational analytics and hands-on tutorials utilizing existing software. The results have the potential to transform how biologists conduct research by providing analytical tools capable of addressing hypotheses that parametric procedures cannot. Delivery of the book and tutorials will make the new permutation-based paradigm freely available with broad impacts.
