Lee (Xingzhou) Li
Researcher
Master of Biostatistics, University of Adelaide and BCA Star Graduate 2023
I chose to study biostatistics as I was deeply unsatisfied with the state of my knowledge on evidence in medicine. Specifically, I wanted to be able to understand the working details of medical research, and I saw that statistics was the (my) major hurdle to achieving this understanding.
Little did I know that the BCA studies would completely change my career trajectory. I have now left my prior permanent employment in pursuit of research work in which I get to continue learning about data science and contribute to research in oncology (and sometimes other fields). I am happy to share that I am content and proud of my newly gained capacity to better understand medical research. For this, I am deeply grateful to my BCA co-ordinator (A/Prof Salter) and the many wonderful teachers throughout the BCA program.

The BCA acknowledges we live and work on the ancestral lands of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, who have for thousands of generations exchanged knowledge for the benefit of all. We pay our respects to those who have cared and continue to care for Country.
