Biostatistics
Biostatistics is a multi-faceted field involving the application of statistical methods and techniques to data collection, data management and data analysis related to living organisms and biological systems. It also involves the application of experimental design, projection methods, descriptive statistics and specific applications to biological disciplines. Yet another aspect involves studying the risk factors that lead to the devel-opment of a disease. The real skill of a statistician lies in identifying and assessing the sample and accurately analysing the mass of data. Biostatisticians also analyse clinical trials of new medicines before they are released into the market.
