Due to developments in prevention, diagnosis and treatment, medical and health sciences professionals are required to incorporate research aimed at improving the health of their patients and the population at large into their clinical practice.
The Statistical Consultancy Service (SAE) at UIC Barcelona was created with the main aim of providing specialised statistical and methodological support to health sciences professionals (e.g. medicine, nursing, pharmacy), thereby offering assistance in the field of biomedical research, in general, and medical research, in particular.
The team of professionals at the SAE is made up of lecturers from the field of Biostatistics with extensive experience in research methodology. The team’s scientific production includes over 80 articles published in indexed journals.
