Numeracy enhances statistical tools in biomedical research, suggesting a shift towards deeper data evaluation.
Biomedical research requires quantitative rigor, i.e., numeracy, a facility with numbers. The last decade has seen the broad adoption of statistical tools (“Numeracy 1.0”). To drive science forward, the expertise to quantitatively evaluate hypotheses and insights also needs to be broadly adopted (“Numeracy 2.0”). Systems biologists will be at the forefront of the transformation.
