Biostat was founded in 1986 for the purpose of developing computer programs
for statistical power analysis and for meta analysis. Development of these
statistical software packages has been funded by the National Institutes
of Health under the SBIR program.
To date, Biostat has released the following statistical analysis software
packages.
Statistical Power Analysis was released in 1988.
Power And Precision (Version 1) was released in 1997.
Power And Precision (Version 2) was released in 2000.
Comprehensive Meta Analysis (Version 1) was released in 2000.
We have been funded by NIH to develop additional modules for both the
power analysis and meta analysis statistical programs, and new versions
of each are scheduled for release over the next few years.
