Abstract:

A biostatistics consulting service can be an opportunity for developing new collaborations in a research hospital. However, it also can present challenges in terms of balancing priorities and time. This roundtable will be a discussion of how best to handle these challenges. In addition, we will talk about choices, such as how to charge for the service, the training required, the role in educating the investigator, etc.
