Biostatistics and Epidemiology

Significant Accomplishments

Collaborations enhance grants and publications

The Division of Biostatistics and Epidemiology continued its strong research program through collaborations with 54 other divisions and publication of more than 100 peer-reviewed articles. Key articles covered the safety of MRI scans, neurobehavioral assessment of newborns, developmental disabilities of cochlear implant recipients, genetics of obesity, and statistical issues in longitudinal data analysis. We also participated in 43 collaborative grants and received three new extramural awards and seven institutional awards.

Building the Data Management Center

Our team continued to lead the institution-wide effort to build a strong Data Management Center, including developing its vision, mission and organizational structure and launching the search for a faculty director. The center has hosted a series of educational events to promote excellence in data management and is finalizing its marketing plan and web page.

Education and Faculty Growth

Our division was actively engaged in education and training activities to serve pediatric residents, fellows, junior faculty, and graduate/post-graduate students at Cincinnati Children’s and the University of Cincinnati. In January 2011, we also began to reorganize and expand our faculty, strengthening our ability to collaborate with other divisions and to develop its independent research. Two faculty positions have been filled and a national search continues.
