Who could benefit from this research

Could help

Researchers and clinicians in OSCTR and partner institutions who design or participate in clinical and translational studies.

Less likely to help

This grant does not directly enroll patients; its impact comes from improving how studies are designed and analyzed.

What this research studies

If you are a patient or someone involved in a clinical study, this core helps researchers plan the strongest studies, analyze data correctly, and report results clearly. It provides statistical and methodological consultation, training, and tools like survey design and REDCap support to ensure reliable findings. The aim is to translate good methods into better patient care and healthier communities through rigorous research. The Core collaborates with investigators across basic through clinical research to make studies more reproducible and applicable to real-world care.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: Stronger, more reliable research that can inform better treatments and care decisions for patients.

How similar studies have gone: Past BERD cores have supported hundreds of projects and improved study quality and reporting.
