The Division of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics in the Department of Public Health Sciences created the University of Miami Biostatistics Collaboration and Consulting Core (BCCC) in 2010. The primary objective is to ensure that the appropriate use of statistical methodology is incorporated in research. This enhances the University’s scientific mission in ensuring appropriate planning for research, including the use of statistical methodology. BCCC personnel are available for collaboration at all stages of research, including but not limited to preparation of grants and contracts, study design, data analysis, and manuscript preparation. Obtaining biostatistical collaboration as early as possible in development of a research project increases the quality of the research, and the likelihood of success in obtaining extramural funds, and meeting study objectives.
The BCCC offers short- and long-term collaborative support activities, grant development, and quick consulting to faculty, staff, and students.
