Abstract

The Biostatistics Core provides support to the 6 projects of the Prostate Cancer SPORE in the areas ofstudy design, data collection and visualization, database development and management, data qualitycontrol, data analysis, bioinformatics, and interpretation. In this regard, members of the Core play anintegral role as members of the team for each project, and provide solutions to commonplace and complexor unique problems that arise during the planning and execution of the projects. Each project has a primarybiostatistician/epidemiologist associated with the project, but most projects will have input from 2 Coreinvestigators, which contributes to interactions among the projects. Core investigators have extensiveexperience in a wide range of biostatistical, epidemiologic and translational research methodologies andapplications. Because of the emphasis on translational science in the SPORE program, the Core alsoincludes members with experience in both epidemiology and biostatistics, who provide important input forpopulation studies and translation to clinical cohorts.
