Services
The Biostatistics Department provides many services that are best used during all phases of study conduct. By involving us early, members can ensure efficient study design and help avoid many practical obstacles to the conduct of good science.
We have collaborated and consulted with investigators from virtually every department and unit on the UNMC campus. These activities have included: cancer, transplantation, infectious disease, geriatrics, anesthesiology, nursing, dentistry, genetics, endocrinology, pulmonology, and health services research.
