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

ctscbiostatisticsworkshop.acuityscheduling.com…

You may make a reservation up to 30 days in advance. In order to be able to adequately address each attendee's question, space is limited to 6. If time permits, we will take questions from attendees without a reservation

The NIH Data Management and Sharing (DMS) Policy, effective January 25, 2023, applies to all research, funded or conducted in whole or in part by NIH, that results in the generation of scientific data.

This includes all NIH-supported research regardless of funding level, including: extramural grants, extramural contracts, intramural research projects, and other funding agreements.

Researchers are required to submit a DMS plan as part of their grant application. If you have questions about the new requirement, where to find DMS plan resources or get help reviewing your draft DMS plan. The CTSC has expertise and is offering office hour consultations on these topics.
