Dear Reader!
- If you're newly introduced to biostatistics, I can assure you: I've walked in your shoes, been in your place.
- There was a period of time when I completely didn't understand a word in medical statistics, but then, the formulae and the different function in statistics started to make sense...
After hours of making charts and writing and taking notes and sitting in front of my laptop.
With this book, I'm giving you a way to shorten the time of studying biostatistics.
This book contains all the basic, essential information that is necessary to understand biostatistics!
