The Summer Research Program in Biostatistics is offered by the Department of Biostatistics and Medical Informatics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The program will give undergraduate students the opportunity to explore a career in biostatistics and bioinformatics by working closely with faculty mentors in the Department and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The Department has an internationally recognized research faculty committed to undergraduate and graduate training, who will direct individual research projects. Our goals are to spark the students' interest in biostatistical research and provide them with the tools and skills to successfully gain admission to post-baccalaureate programs. Students with strength in mathematics participate in coursework in statistical computing, biostatistics, and bioinformatics. A seminar series highlights the diversity of research areas utilizing biostatistics to solve real problems in biological and medical science and provides an understanding of the role of the statistician in a variety of scientific research areas. In addition the program includes workshops on ethics, career choices and other topics of interest.. There are a wide variety of biostatistics and bioinformtaics research activities for 6-8 students in the summer program. Research areas include clinical trials, epidemiology, bioinformatics, statistical genetics and laboratory experimental design. At the end of the 8 week period the students present their work on a chosen research topic to other program participants and mentors.

生物统计学暑期研究项目由威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校生物统计学和医学信息学系提供。该计划将使本科生有机会通过与该部门和威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的教师导师密切合作，探索生物统计学和生物信息学的职业生涯。该部门有一个国际公认的研究教师致力于本科生和研究生的培训，谁将直接个人研究项目。我们的目标是激发学生对生物统计研究的兴趣，并为他们提供成功获得学士后课程录取的工具和技能。 数学能力强的学生参加统计计算、生物统计学和生物信息学的课程。一系列研讨会突出了研究领域的多样性，利用生物统计学来解决生物和医学科学中的真实的问题，并提供了统计学家在各种科学研究领域的作用的理解。此外，该计划还包括关于道德，职业选择和其他感兴趣的主题的研讨会。有各种各样的生物统计学和生物信息学研究活动，为6-8名学生在暑期课程。 研究领域包括临床试验、流行病学、生物信息学、统计遗传学和实验室实验设计。在为期8周的课程结束时，学生将向其他课程参与者和导师展示他们在选定研究主题上的工作。
