Problem: Very little statistical capacity in developing countriesResult 1: Poor research design and analysisResult 2: Limited scientific publication
Solution A: Train people in the USDifficulty: 100,000 to train Ph.D. > 50% stay in USResult: Impossible to build research capacity for budding scientists in Developing countries
Solution 2: Library of Alexandria help research design Help Desk
Help DeskA Service the provides information and assistance concerning research methods
Academic Statistical Help Desk: Typically local, helping students in the University
Industrial strength Help Desk/Customer Service
All major industries, 1000s of queries per hour, global
