Choosing the proper sample size for an investigation is one of the crucial jobs required of a statistician. Regardless of whether the statistician is deciding the number of patients to select in a clinical trial, electors to finish a political survey, or mice to remember for a lab experiment, the same information elements of power, significance criteria, and effect size can be utilized too effectively.

One of the most frustrating things for pharma recruiters and hiring managers is to hire a candidate who appears to be perfect for a role, only to later find out that they lied in their application, making them a lot less ideal - and even less trustworthy - than they originally seemed. To help you to identify lies or exaggerations in job applications and interviews before it’s too late, we’ve outlined some of the most common lies that candidates tell, along with advice on how to spot them.

Thousands of families struggle every day with these diseases which have low prevalence, but dramatically affect the quality of life for these patients and their families. And we used to be one of them.
I believe campaings asking to wear colors for any condition or disease are sometimes insufficient. In my opinion, the only way to raise awareness is to speak loudly, clearly -and realistically- about any condition, although the colouring tools might be a plus for raising awareness. I’m a mom of a Hirschsprung Disease (HD) child -who passed away at the age of 14 months- and also a healthcare professional. I’ve always been silent in regards to HD awareness because I thought the tragic ending of our story would be hopeless for other parents on the same road. On the contrary, today I believe all…

One of the most significant impacts of the Covid pandemic on our culture has been how it has brought diagnostics to the forefront of our national discussion. The UK’s perceived failure to contain the initial spread of the virus was, we were told, in part due to a lesser focus on test and trace procedures than in some other countries and that was down to us not having a tradition of diagnostics in this country.

For Life Science recruiters, one of the easiest mistakes to make when advertising a job vacancy is to simply copy and paste the information from your job description, into the copy of your job advert. Whilst both are important to the recruitment process, job adverts and descriptions shouldn’t be identical copies of the same information, presented in the same way. To help you decide how to differentiate your job adverts from your job descriptions.

According to a new study published in The American Journal of Human Genetics, more than one third of genetic variants that increase the risk of coronary artery disease regulate the expression of genes in the liver. These variants have an impact on the expression of genes regulating cholesterol metabolism, among other things. The findings provide valuable new insight into the genetics of coronary artery disease.

Digestion, absorption, respiration, exercise and reproduction in life activities are all enzymatic reactions. Enzymes are the basis for cells to survive. Almost all chemical reactions involved in cell metabolism are carried out under the catalysis of enzymes.
Enzyme, early refers to "in yeast", refers to a biological catalyst produced by living cells in the organism. Most are composed of protein (a few are RNA), which can efficiently catalyze various biochemical reactions and promote the metabolism of organisms under very mild conditions in the body. Digestion, absorption, respiration, exercise and reproduction in life activities are all enzymatic reactions. Enzymes are the basis for cells to survive. Almost all chemical reactions involved in cell metabolism are carried out under the catal…

Disinfection methods are divided into physical methods, chemical methods and biological methods. The use of biological enzymes as disinfectants should be one of the biological disinfection methods. Biological disinfection is the use of animals, plants, microorganisms and (or) their metabolites to eliminate or kill pathogenic microorganisms in the environment, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the spread of diseases.

Randomization have proven to be an efficient way of reducing bias and thus is widely used in clinical trials. Randomization ensures that subject allocation is balanced across treatment group and is not influenced by external forces and thus provides equal chances for subjects to receive the treatment of interest as they are to receive the comparator treatment. But the balanced allocation across treatments may also mean exposing subjects to ineffective or less beneficial treatment.

The increasing interest in Bayesian group sequential design is due to its potential to reinforce efficiency in clinical trials, shorten drug development time, and enhance the accuracy of statistical inference without compromising the integrity or validity of clinical trials. In a Bayesian trial, the prior information, and the trial results, as they emerge, are viewed as a continuous stream of information, in which inferences can be updated as new data become available.
