CORE--BIOSTATISTICS AND DATA MANAGEMENT

生物统计和数据管理核心将促进收集， 跟踪和处理计划项目补助金的信息 （PPG）。它将提供最高水平的生物统计专业知识， 实验的设计和重要的正式介绍 试验结果它还将提供支持、发展和 维护收集所必需的软件和计算机系统 和数据分析。实验设计基于功率分析 适用于交叉或拉丁方模型或两者的组合。核心 工作人员将与项目人员继续对话， 定期监测数据收集和处理情况， 实验设计应保证新的数据和额外的实验 了从以前的PPG已经有了广泛的数据管理， 将在更新中变得更加重要，超过600只老鼠和27只 必须跟踪人类受试者沿着实验数据。 核心还将为研究生提供教育机会 在生物统计学系。PPG中提出的实验 提供当前统计问题的真实的实例， 由研究生在生物统计学的监督下解决 教师。因此，生物统计部门的全部资源将 为PPG服务。

The Biostatistics and Data Management Core will facilitate the collection, tracking and processing of information for the Program Project Grant (PPG). It will provide the highest level of expertise in biostatistics for the design of the experiments and for formal presentations of significant experimental results. It will also provide support, development and maintenance of software and computer systems essential for the collection and analysis of data. Experimental designs are based on power analysis applied to Crossover or Latin Square models or a combination of both. Core personnel will maintain a continuing dialogue with project personnel on a regular basis to monitor data collection and processing and to modify experimental designs should new data and additional experiments warrant it. Extensive data management is already in place from previous PPGs and will be even more important in the renewal where more than 600 rats and 27 human subjects must be tracked, along with their experimental data. The Core will also provide education opportunities for graduate students in the Department of Biostatistics. The experiments proposed in the PPG provide real life examples of current statistical issues which will be addressed by graduate students under the supervision of the Biostatistics Faculty. Thus, the entire resources of the Biostatistics Department will be available to the PPG.
