Wondering if I should start doing #biostats consulting work again...

I'd have to spin up a website and probably order some business cards again. More importantly, I would need to find an angle to work.

I previously focused on statistics for life science research and healthcare, basically learned everything is driven by regulatory compliance... which is fine and dandy, but I feel like there's something more I can be doing with my skills (and not working for a fucking insurance company). Hmm.

Asking for help/refs: I have observational data where some patients always get treatment T=A due to their diagnosis (D) while the rest get either T=A or T=B based on clinical judgement. It seems to me that it might be possible to get closer to causal claims for T by exploiting the (lack of) differences between the "T=A, D=1" and "T=A, D=0" groups. This seems akin to IV analysis with D as instrument. Any ideas?

#Biostatisticians play a key role in helping novel therapies get to patients faster–they help design #clinicaltrials. Discover how “PlatformDesign” can help craft multi-arm clinical trials.

Looking for #bioinformatics,#biostats, #ecology, #popgen, #fishbiology jobs or postdocs in the Calgary, AB (Canada) region. I'm well versed in popgen, genome assemblies, bioinformatics, workflow design, fish ecology, Bash, R, Python, Julia. Does anyone have or know of any leads? Thanks!

Why can’t we call Quantitative Psychologist psychostatisticians like we call people doing quantitative stuff in bio as biostatistician ? #quantpsych #biostats #psychostats

I'm an assistant professor of environmental science/ecology at a Midwestern #PUI. I teach fairly broadly across our curriculum with ecology classes, seminars and (starting in spring) our #biostats course. My research focuses on how #invertebrate communities (esp. #mites and #nematodes) respond to environmental change such as plant #invasions, climate change (esp. #drought), and ecological #restoration. Also interested in studying impacts of #urbanization.

Hello #twittermigration people! Catching the trend to do this #introduction so I can follow all the cool scitweet people back :)

I'm a master's student at University of Toronto molecular genetics, working mostly on #bioinfomatics #biostats and #datascience , so a lot of #rstats and #python

I plan to toot about my life as a naive grad student, share resources that I gathered to make this journal easier, and likely also my random ideas in bioinfo and biostats

Let's connect (⁠｡⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧

Hi Mastodon, I’m D—aka @\mountainherder at the other place—and part of #twitterMigration. I’m currently a project and product manager with an #publicHealth organization that runs FDA’s post-market drug safety surveillance tools. I’m also a #Biostats student at UW!

In the past I worked on data and digital privacy issues in the humanitarian sector, along with disinformation around the Syrian civil war.

Soo. Hi! I just finished my bachelors in psychology and need to decide (until Friday) on whether to go into #biostats / medical #biometry or #CognitiveScience. Since my picture of biostats is pretty clear, are there any #CogSci people around to tell me something about it?
