MUSC SCORE Biostatistics Resource Core

摘要 生物统计核心资源将提供全面的生物统计分析和数据管理支持 给整个计分队。核心的主要目标是确保(1)在分数中进行的研究是 基于有效的实验设计，(2)分数研究中采用的定量方法是合适的。 对于研究的设计以及这些方法所产生的数据和所需的假设是 适当的和(3)在项目中收集的数据被管理并受到严格的质量控制，以尽量减少 为了减少出错的可能性，并以便于项目间协作的方式进行组织。生物统计学 资源核心还将与分数领导行政核心密切合作，提供统计数据 支持试点项目方案和成绩职业提升核心，以提供统计培训 并为分数学者提供援助。生物统计资源核心成员有着悠久的合作历史 在这一点上的调查人员。将集中提供生物统计分析和数据管理支持 在核心内部，以确保所有得分成员总是可以获得必要的专业知识，并促进 多重利用相同的专业知识，并有助于传播最先进的分析 在所有项目中统一使用技术。此外，核心已经做好了发起和促进互动的准备 在SCORE项目和调查人员中。虽然这些服务集中在生物统计资源中 核心，由于核心设在南加州大学公共卫生科学系，因此它处于有利地位 利用该部门所有成员的知识基础和经验。

ABSTRACT The Biostatistics Core Resource will provide comprehensive biostatistics analysis and data management support to the entire SCORE team. The Core's primary goals are to ensure (1) research conducted in the SCORE is based on efficient experimental design, (2) quantitative methods used in the SCORE research are appropriate for the design of the study and for the data generated and assumptions required for these methods are appropriate and (3) data collected in the Projects are managed and subjected to rigorous quality control to minimize the possibility of errors and are organized in a manner that facilitates inter-project collaboration. The Biostatistics Resource Core will also work closely with the SCORE Leadership Administrative Core to provide statistical support for the Pilot Project Program, and the SCORE Career Enhancement Core to provide statistical training and assistance for SCORE Scholars. Biostatistics Resource Core members have a long history of collaboration with the investigators on this SCORE. Biostatistics analysis and data management support will be centralized within the Core to ensure necessary expertise is always available to all members of the SCORE and to facilitate multiple utilization of the same expertise as well as contribute to the dissemination of state-of-the art analysis techniques uniformly across all projects. Moreover, the Core is well poised to initiate and promote interactions among SCORE projects and investigators. While the services are centralized within the Biostatistics Resource Core, since the Core is housed in the Department of Public Health Sciences at MUSC it is well positioned to leverage the knowledge base and experience of all the members of the department.
