The 31st ISCB Annual Conference will take place from Sunday 29 August to Thursday 2 September 2010 in Montpellier, France. We are very happy with the decision made by the ISCB Executive Committee; we feel honoured by this decision and will do whatever is necessary to make the symposium a success. 20 years ago, the team that I direct organized the ISCB Annual Conference in Nîmes with the late Prof. C. Chastang. We are thus further honoured to organize this conference. |

Biostatistics have since gone through many important changes of great interest and necessity to all fields of study in Medicine. Though the domain of Biostatistics is often perceived as complex and limiting to pharmaceutical research and development, new statistical tools exist that are essential to the domain both because of the choice of methodologies available and because of the development of new tools adapted to new problems. This is further emphasized by the necessary cooperation between clinicians and biostatisticians as concerns interpreting results. It is this transfer process which allows actors from the pharmaceutical, prosthetic, diagnostic, and prognostic domains to weigh the interest of our field of expertise and measure its value.

 Furthermore, biostatisticians are not only the think tanks behind new models, but they also significantly contribute to medical economics. Their work is essential for justifying and optimizing the large investments necessary behind large, high quality cohorts of patients over long periods of time. |

| We hope that all the health professionals participating in this conference will benefit from its scope and content. |
