Biostatistics Shared Resource (BSR)

The Biostatistics Shared Resource (BSR) is an NYU Cancer Institute (NYUCI) Shared Resource focused on providing statistical collaboration for cancer research. Oversight of the Resource is provided by the Director of the NYUCI, Dr. William Carroll, and the NYUCI Executive Committee of which Dr. Goldberg, Resource Director, is a member. The resource provides access to all members of the NYUCI as well as junior investigators who are developing research programs. Priorities for access are set by the BSR Director in concert with Program Leaders for within program and with the Executive Committee and NYUCI Director for cross program priorities. The Division of Biostatistics (home of the BSR) is also home of the NYU-HHC Study Design, Biostatistics and Clinical Research Ethics Program which provides consultation and collaboration for the development of translational research projects, consulting workshops, and training that is coordinated with BSR activities to ensure that there is no duplication of services, but rather expansion. The Environmental Health Statistics and Bioinformatics Facility of the NYU NIEHS Center of Excellence is also based in the Division of Biostatistics and provides additional resources for environmental research that is cancer-focused.
