At Statistics for You, we take it for granted that medical statistics is not just an area of statistics, but a separate scientifc field governed by its own laws, thus a medical statistician should have much broader knowledge than just in the area of statistical methodology.
Given the significant impact and broad implications of statistics for medical research and public health, we make sure to use appropriate statistical tests, analytical methods and forecasting techniques when analyzing the results of clinical or laboratory studies or conducting meta-analysis of medical data.
Thanks to our knowledge of biostatistics, we are not only able to perform typical medical statistics analyses and graphs based on the data we receive, but also we can suggest when the data exhibit characteristics that require additional analyses or even an alternative methodology to the one initially planned – those additional steps may be key for the successful publication of research results.
We are aware that our biostatistics-oriented Clients approach us with varying levels of experience in medical statistics. Thus, we tailor the level of support to each inquiry we receive. We rejoice every time a Client who starts a conversation with “I don’t know anything about statistics at all” later successfully defends a doctorate or publishes an article in a high-ranking medical journal.
In our work in the field of statistics in medical research, we’ve had the opportunity to work with hospitals, clinics, universities, foundations, as well as individuals at various stages of scientific career (from students, to medical doctors, PhDs, associate professors and professors).
We are fully aware of the importance of a solid research plan at the very beginning of the research process for the quality of the subsequent statistical data analysis and the conclusions drawn. For this reason, our support is always tailored to the Client’s current needs and the level of sophistication of the study.
In the early stages of a research project, our assistance may include:
Once the data is collected, we collaborate in other areas as well, including::
