  • Biostatistics & Study Design

    The Biostatistics Laboratory is run through the Department of Public Health Sciences with support from the ITM. Its experts help investigators with everything from study design to data analysis.

    Schedule a free consultation through Biotime here. The ITM is happy to providing funding for additional support. Click here to learn more.

    We recommend taking advantage of it before submitting an application for ITM Pilot Awards, as biostatisticians are often part of the pool of reviewers.
