This site aims to be a lively and interesting resource for medical statisticians and anyone interested in medical statistics generally, including people in companies and organisations that use the services of medical statisticians.

It has three main sections:

• News stories culled from many sources. Keep yourself up to date.
• Articles of a more general nature, not so time-sensitive. Share opinions and gather fresh ideas.
• Questions and Answers (Q&A). If you have a medical stats-related question, we'll do our best to find an authoritative answer.

If you want to ask a question - ask it!

If you want to tell the world about something medical statistical - write an article about it!

If you want to help publicise the site - write about it in your blog, in your Facebook or Linkedin profile, put a link on your website, or just email your friends.

This site is owned and administered by Michelle Hards MSc BSc, a medical statistician working for EPIC (click to learn more) - the London-based expert consultancy in the supply, management and application of UK anonymised primary care patient data to support medical research within the healthcare industry.
