Title: Biostatistics


1
Biostatistics
  • Statistics is the collection, processing,
    interpretation and presentation of numerical
    information. Biostatistics is the application of
    statistics to questions about human health.
    Because the factors that affect human health are
    various, biostatistics is an umbrella term that
    encompasses statistical research in several
    subject matter areas. These areas include
    pharmacology, medicine, biotechnology, biology,
    genetics, and public health.

2
Science
  • Systematized knowledge derived from observation,
    study and experimentation carried on in order to
    determine the nature or principles of what is
    being studied.
