BIOMETRICS

代表国际生物计量学会出版的《生物计量学》强调了统计学和数学在生物科学中的作用。它的目标是通过报告这些方法的发展和应用，促进和扩大在生物科学的主要学科中使用统计和数学方法。大多数生物计量学文章的核心是科学应用，它设定科学或政策目标，推动方法开发，并演示新方法的操作。该杂志的论文分四部分发表。生物统计学方法学部分主要介绍了生物科学中新方法的开发和应用结果。生物计量学实践部分包含的论文涉及方法的创新应用，并提供实际的贡献和指导，生物学见解，和/或重要的新发现。读者的反应论文直接指以前发表在期刊上的文章，而给编辑的信件则对期刊及其内容提供评论和建议。

Published on behalf of the International Biometric Society, Biometrics emphasizes the role of statistics and mathematics in the biosciences. Its objectives are to promote and extend the use of statistical and mathematical methods in the principal disciplines of biosciences by reporting on the development and application of these methods. A centerpiece of most Biometrics articles is scientific application that sets scientific or policy objectives, motivates methods development, and demonstrates the operations of new methods.Papers in the journal appear in one of four sections. The Biometric Methodology section presents papers that focus on the development of new methods and results of use in the biosciences. The Biometric Practice section contains papers involving innovative applications of methods and providing practical contributions and guidance, biological insight, and/or significant new findings. Reader Reaction papers refer directly to articles previously published in the journal, and Letters to the Editors provide comments and suggestions on the journal and its content.
