Abstract

Aelina Pose*

Ethical conduct in biostatistics is essential to ensure the integrity, credibility and trustworthiness of research in the field of healthcare and biomedical sciences. Biostatisticians play a crucial role in the design, analysis, and interpretation of research studies, and they must adhere to high ethical standards. Biostatisticians should respect the principles of informed consent when working with human subjects in research. They must ensure that participants understand the purpose, risks, and benefits of the study, especially when handling sensitive or personal data.
