Please fill out our new REDCap form for project requests.

Need biostatistical support for your project?

Please fill out our project request survey:

Project Request Form

 

We will then circulate your request among our center colleagues to determine which statistician(s) are able to assist your project. Please ensure you are up to date on the Center's Policies in the meantime.


Hourly Projects:

  • If this is a request to work with a biostatistician at their hourly rate (i.e., no MOU is in place), the assigned biostatistician will reach out to the investigator to meet/discuss project expectations and fee structure prior to beginning work. The biostatistician will use this information to complete a Cost Estimate form in REDCap. Upon completion, the investigator will receive an email with the cost estimate responses attached for review and a link to a 'PI Approval' form in REDCap where they will provide their final signature of approval. After this step, collaboration may ensue.
  • New FY25 Hourly Rates: Junior staff- $72/hr ; Mid staff- $102/hr ; Senior staff- $116/hr ; Faculty- $160/hr

 

MOU Projects:

  • If this is a request to work with a biostatistician who has been assigned to an MOU with your lab, please still fill out the project request form to help us keep track. Once the form is submitted, the biostatistician on the MOU will simply reach out for an initial meeting to discuss project expectations. No cost estimate required. If expectations are agreeable, collaboration may ensue.
  • FY24 MOU Rates: % FTE of salary + benefits
