目标

• To provide biostatistical leadership in the institution and the larger cancer research community regarding the proper and innovative design and analysis of clinical, diagnostic, laboratory, population, and prevention studies
• To develop innovative clinical trial designs that most efficiently utilize the available information from a trial, protect patients within the trial from excessive toxicity or ineffective treatments, and provide patients with the best possible treatment within a particular trial. These include Bayesian monitoring strategies, improved dose-finding strategies, adaptive randomization, and improved screening designs.
• To develop innovative methods for analyzing data resulting from collaborative cancer research studies, including standard outcomes such as survival, response, symptoms, and quality of life measures, as well as complex data from emerging technologies, including high-dimensional genomics data and imaging data. Methods for data mining, adaptive learning, and integrating information across multiple platforms in the context of personalized medicine are currently being developed.
• To ensure that MD Anderson studies are properly designed to reach their intended goals, that they are sufficiently powered, and that the design and analyses appropriately control and adjust for confounding factors
• 为了提供临床试验，包括诊断，治疗，平移和预防研究生物统计协作支持。这种支持包括设计，临时监测，归根结底，报告和协同主要研究者和合作研究者研究结果的正确解释。
• 为了提供MD安德森调查研究优秀统计分析，包括以高效的方式正确使用的标准和先进的方法来最大限度地提高电源的发现，同时适当控乐动体育LDsports中国制I型错误和虚假的发现
• To develop and participate in inter-institutional graduate academic programs in biostatistics
• To provide educational programs in biostatistical literacy and principles for non-quantitative research scientists and clinicians
