Specifically, the aims of the core will be to: (1) Provide guidance on optimal data collection and data processing procedures; (2) Design and maintain databases for each study; (3) Monitor studies for quality of accumulating data; (4) Advise on formulation of appropriate hypotheses and outcome measures; (5) Implement state-of-the-art strategies and techniques for data analysis; and (6) Collaborate with study investigators on the interpretation and publication of results.
