@Eppendorf_Group is there a way I could get an eppendorf pen living in Brazil? I’m a masters student in immunology and it has always been a dream to have a pipette pen 😭
Every researcher's nightmare: "Your sample size is too small to detect that effect."
This open-access paper in Frontiers in Medicine solves that problem BEFORE you collect data.
"How to calculate sample size in animal and human studies" by Zhang & Hartmann breaks down:
✓ What is statistical power? (and why 0.8 isn't magic) ✓ How to choose effect size
✓ What to do when you have pilot data
✓ What to do when you have NO pilot data
✓ How to account for dropouts
✓ Actual G*Power screenshots with parameters filled in
The paper includes worked examples for:
- Comparing two proportions
- Comparing two means
- Studies with unequal group sizes
- Studies expecting attrition
The hard truth: Most underpowered studies aren't because researchers are careless. They're because sample size calculation is genuinely confusing and rarely taught well.
This paper treats you like an intelligent person who just needs clear explanation and practical examples.
Read it before you write your next ethics application or grant proposal.
Your future self (and your reviewers) will thank you.
