Biostatistics and Data Management (BD) Core

生物统计学和数据管理（BD）核心项目总结 生物统计学和数据管理（BD）核心将提供生物统计学、流行病学和 为UNM金属的四个研究项目和核心提供数据管理支持。BD核心 旨在确保并最大限度地提高UNM METALS团队发现的信息的质量， 在努力更好地了解被遗弃的土地对生态和人类健康的影响时， 铀矿污染物每个研究项目至少由一名生物统计学家代表 和数据分析师，选择他们的应用研究重点和项目之间的联系最大化。 BD Core将为UNM METALS项目提供统计服务和研究创新 开发，研究设计和数据分析，并将开发新的统计方法， 优化UNM METALS研究需求的必要性。此外，BD Core将开发统计风险 根据废物的环境特征预测疾病可能性的模型 根据各项目的综合结果。BD Core还将作为数据协调 通过项目和其他核心收集的数据中心，提供数据库基础设施 实验室实验、环境和流行病学研究的管理，以及 干预措施，包括审查和监测超级基金UNM金属公司内部进行的试验， 从而确保数据质量、研究完整性和受试者安全。核心成员具有较强的 背景生物统计学，流行病学，基础科学，转化研究，干预， 最先进的环境数据管理，它们将为 设计和执行拟议的研究项目，并将与核心密切合作， 无缝整合这个创新的UNM金属中心的各个方面。

BIOSTATISTICS AND DATA MANAGEMENT (BD) CORE PROJECT SUMMARY BIOSTATISTICS AND DATA MANAGEMENT (BD) Core will provide biostatistical, epidemiologic, and data management support for the four research Projects and the Cores of UNM METALS. The BD Core aims to ensure and maximize the quality of the information the UNM METALS team discovers and disseminates in its efforts to better understand ecological and human health impacts of abandoned uranium mine contaminants. Each research project is represented by at least one faculty biostatistician and data analyst, selected to maximize the link between their applied research focus and the project. The BD Core will provide the UNM METALS projects with statistical services and innovations in study development, study design, and data analyses, and will develop new statistical methodology as necessary to optimize the UNM METALS study needs. Further, the BD Core will develop statistical risk models to predict the likelihood of disease from environmental characteristics of the waste materials based on the integrated results across Projects. The BD Core will also function as the data coordinating center for the data collected through the Projects and other Cores to provide database infrastructure and management for laboratory experiments, environmental and epidemiology studies, and interventions, including review and monitoring of trial conducted within the Superfund UNM METALS, thereby ensuring data quality, study integrity and subject safety. Core members have strong backgrounds in biostatistics, epidemiology, basic science, translational research, intervention, and state-of-art environmental data management, and they will provide appropriate approaches for the design and execution of the proposed research Projects and will work closely with the Cores for seamless integration of all aspects of this innovative UNM METALS Center.
