Statisticians can apply their knowledge of statistics to a variety of fields such as public health, medicine, economics, engineering, education, and sports, and work in government, business and industry. Many statisticians work in medical device and pharmaceutical companies to develop and evaluate the results of clinical trials to determine the safety and effectiveness of new medications or medical devices. However, there are differences working in medical device companies and pharmaceutical firms. 1.The differences of devices and drugs. 2. Statistical organizational difference. 3. Statistician role and responsibilities (i.e., data cleaning, database management, SAS programming, and report writing). 4.Clinical trial design and applied statistical knowledge (i.e., Bayesian statistics in medical device trials). 5.Outsourcing.
