摘要
Medical statistics teaching in the U.K. has moved over the past twenty years from needing justification to acceptability. In the future teachers need to involve statistical and medical colleagues to improve the content and presentation of their material. While some techniques must continue to be taught, the conceptual aspects of scientific evaluation and assessment will need to increase. Copyright © 1990 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
