Description:
The Pediatric Biostatistics Core was established in 2009 with a mission to support pediatric researchers at Emory University and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, as well as child health researchers at several other Atlanta area institutions including Georgia Institute of Technology and Morehouse School of Medicine. The high-rigor statistical expertise provided by the core bolsters the quality of pediatric research to promote impactful and reproducible research findings across all child health disciplines. The Core provides in-house assistance and collaboration in study design, grant applications, protocol development, data analysis, publication preparation, and statistical education. In addition, the core also provides access to expertise using qualitative research methods including aid in the design, collection, and analysis of data collected through qualitative methodologies and approaches such as focus groups, interviews, and observations. The Biostatistics Core is one of the most productive pediatric biostatistics units in the country, managing 400-500 active projects at any given time and collaborating on up to 100 grant applications and co-authoring 100-150 scientific articles every year.
