Bioinformatics / Biostatistics Unit

Introducció

The mission of the Bioinformatics and Biostatistics Unit is to conduct collaborative research, provide consultation and quantitative research resources to all the IRB Barcelona research groups. We assist scientists by providing both short and long term consulting in the following areas:

• Experimental design: sample size, study design, planning of statistical methodology
• Data analysis: clinical or biomedical databases, genomics data
• Assistance with statistical methodology in own or others’ research
• Software: help using software, developing software to meet special data analysis or study design needs

We commit ourselves to conducting methodological research and developing resources in any of the above-mentioned areas.
