CORE--BIOSTATISTICS, MODELLING, AND COMPUTING

为了支持超级基金计划，统计核心C将扩展到所有拟议的项目和新的实验室核心d。核心C的目的是：1)为项目研究者提供生物统计学方面的咨询支持，2)支持基于计算机的通信和数据库需求。支持的活动将包括：网络开发和维护，参与研究设计和生物标记数据的统计分析，参与流行病学设计和复杂数据库的分析，以及使用主机计算机对暴露和补救过程的大规模数学建模做出贡献。这些服务将大大提高超级基金计划所有组成部分实现三个具体目标的能力。

In order to support the Superfund Program, statistical Core C will be expanded to contribute to all proposed projects and the new laboratory Core D. The purposes of Core C are to: 1) provide project investigators with consultative support in biostatistics, and 2) support computer-based communication and database needs. Activities supported will include: network development and maintenance, participation in study design and statistical analysis of biomarker data, involvement in epidemiological design and analysis of complex databases, and contribution to large-scale mathematical modeling of exposure and remediation processes using main-frame computers. These services will greatly enhance the ability of all components of the Superfund program to achieve three specific aims.
