The quality of medical research importantly depends, among other aspects, on a valid statistical planning of the study, analysis of the data, and reporting of the results, which is usually guaranteed by a biostatistician. However, there are several related professions next to the biostatistician, for example epidemiologists, medical informaticians and bioinformaticians. For medical experts, it is often not clear what the differences between these professions are and how the specific role of a biostatistician can be described. For physicians involved in medical research, this is problematic because false expectations often lead to frustration on both sides. Therefore, the aim of this article is to outline the tasks and responsibilities of biostatisticians in clinical trials as well as in other fields of application in medical research.

为什么需要一名生物统计学家?

医学研究的质量尤其重要地取决于研究的有效统计计划,数据分析和结果报告,这通常由生物统计学家保证。但是,生物统计学家旁边还有几个相关专业,例如流行病学家,医学信息学家和生物信息学家。对于医学专家而言,通常不清楚这些专业之间有什么区别,以及如何描述生物统计学家的具体作用。对于从事医学研究的医师而言,这是有问题的,因为错误的期望通常会导致双方的挫败感。因此,本文的目的是概述生物统计学家在临床试验以及在医学研究中的其他应用领域中的任务和职责。
