Kellie J. Archer

“With rising interest in big data, predictive analytics and scientific reproducibility, biostatisticians play an increasingly vital role in biomedical and public health research. Our PhD program in biostatistics, offered jointly with the Department of Statistics, brings together more than 20 faculty to provide expanded training and research opportunities. The division also offers an MS in Public Health with a concentration in biostatistics and an MPH focused on biostatistical methods. Faculty are independent researchers with expertise in clinical trial design, missing data, causal inference, longitudinal analysis, genomics, Bayesian methods, survival analysis and more. They serve as key collaborators on diverse research projects across the university and beyond, which stimulates the development of new biostatistical methodologies and provides excellent student research opportunities.”
