In this eighth article in the LabCoat Guide to BioStatistics series, intended as a basic refresher for scientists and technicians, we learn about Randomization and Experimental Design. In biological trials, randomization is the process of randomly allocating experimental units (e.g., pots comprising treatments, references, untreated controls, as well as application timings and -doses) across the treatment groups. Randomization provides a basis for the statistical methods used in generating and analyzing data by reducing bias, such as selection bias (our tendency to see patterns when evaluating experiments). #statistics #biostatistics #experimentalresearch #cropprotection #bioscience #GuideToEssentialBiostatistics #Experimentaldesign
