About Course

At AxeUSCE, we aim to empower healthcare professionals and researchers with data-driven research skills that advance medical science.
The SEER Data Analysis course provides a complete, practical introduction to analyzing cancer registry data using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.

Through interactive sessions, learners will explore data extraction with SEER*Stat, apply machine learning techniques for predictive modeling, classify metastasis using real-world datasets, and perform time-to-event (survival) analysis.
A guided Google Colab notebook (SEER Machine Learning colab.ipynb) is included for hands-on practice — making it easy to run analyses without local setup.

By the end, you’ll be able to independently analyze SEER data, perform predictive modeling, and generate publication-ready research outputs.
