GEPAC Update

John Connett, Biostatistics

Biostatistics

1. Continued excellence in funded research; funding reached expectations and grant submission are also strong

Biostatistics

2. Continued excellence and expansion in service course teaching: Our new Applied Biostatistics Certificate program is attracting more students, we are introducing an online version of our Intro to Biostat sequence (PubH 6450-51) this fall, and our re-envisioning of PubH 6414 as a "Biostat concepts" course continues and will debut in Fall 2014.

Biostatistics

3. Continued excellence in graduate education: We are landing increasingly gifted classes of incoming PhD and MS students, and also revising/modernizing our PhD program to add "areas of emphasis" (e.g., clinical trials, spatial, and bioinformatics) to our PhD program, in part due to our ongoing pursuit of NIH training grants.

Biostatistics

4. Launch of our new 6-week Summer Institute in Biostatistics (SIBS) program: 25 highly qualified undergrads from all over the nation (nearly half of whom are minority candidates) will be visiting to study, learn, and go on field trips (both work-related and social) this June and July. This will further help us with grad student recruitment down the line.
