Researchers often have questions about statistics in designing a study or analyzing data. Some statistical questions can be easily answered in a short conversation with a knowledgeable statistician. In order to efficiently and effectively meet the statistical needs of clinical and translational investigators at UC Davis, the CTSC - in collaboration with the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center - maintain weekly "office hours" for statistical consultations. These office hours are an opportunity for investigators to consult with a statistician about the design, analysis or presentation of medical research studies in a friendly, informal setting.

Due to the popularity of this program, investigators wanting to attend one of the upcoming office hours are asked to reserve a spot in advance by going to:

This event is part of the Internal Medicine Grand Rounds speaker series funded through a grant to address and combat antisemitism, Islamophobia, and other forms of bias, bigotry, and discrimination.

Heightened tensions from the conflict in the Middle East have led to an increase in hate crimes and discriminatory incidents on campuses nationwide. The current political climate has also contributed to the silencing of important discourse, which has profoundly affected our faculty, staff, and students. This Grand Rounds speaker series aims to provide a safe forum where perspectives can be expressed, fostering collective reflection.
