Abstract

Aelina Pose*

Biostatistics, a field that specializes in the analysis of data arising from biomedical research, remains a vibrant and ever-evolving discipline. Recent breakthroughs in biomedical research have ushered in a new era of complexity and opened up fresh challenges and opportunities for statisticians and data scientists. Notable areas of advancement in biostatistics include the analysis of complex time-to-event data and addressing issues related to missing data. These challenges have become particularly prominent in application areas such as medicine, genetics, neuroscience, and engineering. Biostatistics is indeed a highly dynamic and evolving field that continually adapts to the challenges and opportunities presented by advances in biomedical research.
