The PTraC Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Core (BBC) is a partnership between the Pulmonary Division and the Center for Innovative Design and Analysis (CIDA). We provide biostatistical and bioinformatics support to Pulmonary Division researchers at any stage of a project – from grant development through peer-reviewed publications. There are two ways to request our support:
*Funding waivers will be considered on a case-by-case basis by the Division’s Executive Committee and evaluated based on feasibility, significance, relevance to grant funding, and/or potential for career development.
Types of support
A list of specific examples of how we can support your project includes:
Note: does not apply to grant submission support; see below for our grant support policies
Pulmonary Translational Core (PTraC)/Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Core (BBC)
Purpose: To outline the process for requesting funding waivers from the Division of Pulmonary Sciences and Critical Care Medicine (PSCCM) for BBC support when no other resources are available. Waived projects should advance the academic career of PSCCM faculty and result in tangible output (e.g. abstracts, papers, presentations, grants, ect.).
Pulmonary Translational Core (PTraC)/Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Core (BBC)
The BBC is committed to supporting investigators in the development of competitive grant applications by providing expertise in study design, statistical analysis planning, power and sample size calculations, and bioinformatics. We support a broad spectrum of research, ranging from T1 to T4 translational research projects. To ensure a clear understanding of our role and expectations, the following policy applies to all Pulmonary & Critical Care researchers seeking grant support:
