Summer 2009 Opportunities for Undergraduate Students for Training in Biostatistics

Friday, February 6th, 2009

 

SIBS introduces quantitatively oriented undergraduate students to Biostatistics. Students learn about the applications of statistical methods to biomedical research through coursework and hands-on experience working with real data collected in major clinical studies. Each of the three program sites has its own unique features, but they all have a well-conceived, balanced agenda and an outstanding staff of dedicated investigators and professors.

SIBS (Summer Institutes for Training in Biostatistics) is scheduled this summer June 8–July 17. SIBS is open to all US undergraduates (citizens or permanent residents).
