Stanley Lemeshow, PhD, Director
The Center for Biostatistics provides expertise with which biomedical investigators within and outside The Ohio State University can collaborate in study design, data management and statistical analysis of clinical, epidemiological, public health and laboratory research
data. As a centralized resource, the Center involves faculty in the Division of Biostatistics and the Department of Statistics in delivering high-quality expertise to biomedical
investigators.
Ongoing Research Programs
- Current grant activity includes nine Biostatistics Core grants funded by the National Institutes of Health.
- The Center also is supported by seven R01 grants, 10 R21 grants and seven smaller grants.
Research Accomplishments of 2007
- The Center collaborated in writing more than 100 grant proposals and 40 accepted publications. Long-term collaborative relationships between Center staff and investigators
are strongly promoted by the Center to increase efficiency, optimize productivity and enhance responsiveness. Assignments to projects are thus easily prioritized. Center personnel include a director, a managing director, an administrator and a human resource professional, along with six PhD biostatistical scientists, nine MS biostatisticians, a systems programmer, a systems specialist, four graduate students and two undergraduate students.
