  <abstract>"Biostatistics (a portmanteau of biology and statistics; sometimes referred to as biometry or biometrics) is the application of statistics to a wide range of topics in biology. The science of biostatistics encompasses the design of biological experiments, especially in medicine and agriculture; the collection, summarization, and analysis of data from those experiments, and the interpretation of, and inference from, the results. Biostatistics the application of statistics to a wide range of topics in biology. The science of biostatistics encompasses the design of biological experiments, especially in medicine, pharmacy, agriculture and fishery; the collection, summarization, and analysis of data from those experiments; and the interpretation of, and inference from, the results. A major branch of this is medical biostatistics, which is exclusively concerned with medicine and health. Bioinformatics is the intersection of molecular biology and computer science. For software developers, It's a fascinating and challenging area in which to work During the coming months, the Mac DevCenter will touch on different areas of bioinformatics what the hot topics are right now, how Mac OSX and open source software are playing a role, and how you can get involved. Bioinformatics has been defined many different ways, since practitioners do not always agree upon the scope of its use within the biological and computer sciences, but it is always considered a combination of both sciences, along with other contributing disciplines This book is written for researchers, biostatisticians/statisticians, and scientists who are interested in quantitative analyses"-- Back cover.</abstract>
