The Biostatistics Clinics exist for investigators needing assistance with experimental design, study design, data analysis, data display, statistical computing, and interpretation of results The clinic is primarily a brainstorming session for all investigators desiring assistance with data such as those arising from genomic and proteomic experiments. In such data there are fewer subjects than there are measurements per subject. Faculty and staff from the Department of Biomedical Informatics and the Department of Biostatististics operate the clinic to help investigators develop optimal experimental designs and data analysis strategies, incorporating the appropriate mixture of machine learning, data mining, and biostatistical techniques. When an experiment has already been designed, faculty of the clinic can assess whether the data will be worth analyzing (especially for diagnostic or prognostic association studies).
