Biostatistics
Biostatistics applies statistical methods to understand and address complex problems in medicine, biology, and public health. It involves analyzing data on humans and other living organisms to uncover patterns, test ideas, and guide decision-making in health research. By surveying and modeling the origin and treatment of diseases, biostatistics provides essential insights into improving health outcomes and shaping effective healthcare strategies.
Our research
Our research uses statistical and epidemiological methods to explore important issues in medicine and health. In our work, we aim to describe current trends in health and disease, identify their causes, and predict future developments. Our research helps translate data into knowledge that can inform better healthcare, prevention, and policy decisions.
