A new paper discussing the importance of federal, institutional, and programmatic support for physician scientist trainees. The same can easily apply to biomedical trainees. We as a nation need to support the next generation of doctors and researchers! rdcu.be/etaiE

Interesting historical principles of clinical trial conduct … Rule 5 “the medical statistician has to be competent” … sure hope we’ve got that one sorted!

Not just semantics... Great way to think. It's not the data, it's what you do with it that can lead to biased conclusions.
Data are not biased. Datasets can be small, selective, incomplete, full of error, and is mostly a combination of these. Depending on what you do with such a dataset, some estimators (but not always all of them) may be biased and results unreliable and untrustworthy
