When To Contact Us
Since we offer a variety of services and collaborate on many studies and projects, it is important that we have sufficient time to complete high quality work.
Allow a minimum of two weeks (for descriptive analyses) or four weeks (for more complex analyses) notice before the abstract deadline or presentation date, provided that a clean dataset is presented to the CCORDA member.
Allow enough time for a CCORDA member to review and approve the paper to ensure appropriate analytical methods and results interpretation are utilized and presented in the manuscript.
Allow at least two to four weeks before your internal deadlines.
Allow at least four weeks prior to the project deadline.
Allow at least six to eight weeks prior to any internal deadlines. More time is advised if the grant proposal includes more complex or uncommon study designs.
Exceptions exist for cases involving resubmissions, renewals, or submissions of proposals that are substantially similar to previous grants in which the biostatisticians fully participated. CCORDA member approval of the final grant document must be secured prior to submission.
