R. Barker Bausell (born 1942)[1] is an American biostatistician and retired professor at the University of Maryland, Baltimore,[2] where, from approximately 1999 to 2004, he was the director of their center for studying complementary and alternative medicine.[3] He was also the co-founder of the academic journal Evaluation & the Health Professions,[4] and served as its editor-in-chief for more than three decades.[5] An expert on research methods, he is known for criticizing alternative medicine,[6] saying that alternative medical treatments are little to no more effective than placebos.[7] He is the author of the book Snake Oil Science: The Truth About Complementary and Alternative Medicine, published in 2007 by Oxford University Press.[8][9] He has also written a book about teaching in the United States and how he feels it could be improved, entitled "Too Simple to Fail".[10]
