BIOSTATISTICS CORE

生物统计学核心（核心F）提供生物统计学合作，跨学科联系，培训 艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究中心的艾滋病毒/艾滋病相关研究工作。Core F提供了全方位的 统计咨询服务以及复杂统计问题的方法创新。的 核心F成员积极主动地与CFAR调查员合作，以确定和提供对高度 艾滋病研究成果的设计、管理、分析和出版。核心F有助于 假设的框架，研究设计的发展，最佳统计策略的选择，以及 出版物所需的统计分析。艾滋病研究的新研究人员获得最高优先权。 核心F是将艾滋病毒研究中的统计和生物医学科学家联系起来的纽带;例如，临床医生发现 统计学共同研究者，而统计学家发起艾滋病相关方法研究时，找到临床共同研究者。 为了互惠互利，统计专业人员提供必要的协作支持， 在需要新统计方法的引人注目的数据集所带来的挑战中蓬勃发展。 Core F作为一个正式的核心，其组织方式大大提高了其效率和连接能力 科学家社区，并提供艾滋病研究方面的指导和培训。核心F广泛 被认为是一个专门的设施，方便CFAR科学家。有力制度支撑 允许Core F充分利用现有的基础设施、资源 并与以统计科学专业领域的专业知识而闻名的教师联系。该芯体的 工作人员积极寻找有兴趣参与核心F的新成员的教师和学生。 [与公共卫生的关系]与NIH CFAR计划的使命一致，生物统计学核心 艾滋病研究中心为艾滋病研究人员提供必要的生物统计支持和专业知识， 这些调查人员面临的统计方法挑战的创新解决方案， 通过为这些调查人员带来更多的最佳统计资源， 积极推动扩大统计专业人员和研究生的数量， 与艾滋病有关的研究，并为艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究的新手提供指导和培训。

The Biostatistics Core (Core F) provides biostatistical collaboration, interdisciplinary connections, training and leadership for the HIV/AIDS-related research of the UNC CFAR. Core F provides a full spectrum of statistical consulting services as well as methodological innovations for complex statistical issues. The members of Core F proactively engage CFAR investigator to identify and deliver services essential for highly productive design, management, analysis and publication of AIDS research. Core F contributes to the framing of hypotheses, development of study designs, selection of best statistical strategies, and delivery of statistical analyses required for publications. Investigators new to AIDS research receive highest priority. Core F serves as a nexus linking statistical and biomedical scientists in HIV research; e.g., clinicians find statistical co-investigators while statisticians initiating AIDS-related methods research find clinical coinvestigators. Of mutual benefit, statistical professionals provide essential collaborative support while thriving on challenges presented by compelling datasets that demand new statistical methods. The organization of Core F, as a formal core, greatly enhances its efficiency and its abilities to connect communities of scientists, and to provide mentoring and training in AIDS research. Core F is widely recognized as a specialized facility conveniently located for CFAR scientists. Strong institutional support from the Biostatistics Department allows Core F to take full advantage of existing infrastructure, resources and contacts with faculty renowned for their expertise in specialized fields of statistical science. The Core's personnel proactively seek faculty and students interested in participating as new members of Core F. [Relevance to Public Health.] Consistent with the mission of the NIH CFAR Program, the Biostatistics Core of the UNC CFAR delivers essential biostatistical support and expertise to AIDS investigators, develops innovative solutions to statistical methodological challenges faced by these investigators, stimulates innovation and synergism by bringing to these investigators expanded arrays of best statistical resources, actively promotes expansion of the number of statistical professionals and graduate students involved in AIDS-related research, and provides mentoring and training to investigators new to HIV/AIDS research.
