Abstract

Core C, the Biostatistical and Data Management Core, will provide the statistical expertise and data entry and data management support needed by Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Clinical Research Center (CFS-CRC) investigators.
Its specific aims are to 1) provide consultation and collaboration on study design, methodology, and data analysis; 2) assist with the design of study forms and the evaluation of pre-testing and pilot data; 3) perform and supervise data entry; 4) maintain data bases and perform data management and quality control procedures; and 5) collaborate in the preparing and writing of manuscripts. The establishment of a Biostatistical and Data Management Core will allow new investigators to obtain valuable advice on CFS-related projects, and established investigators involved in the CFS-CRC to get advanced biostatistical consultation and evaluate novel approaches to research relevant to this CRC.
