Abstract:

The session covers three major topic areas: pragmatic aspects of consulting, working with nonstatisticians (especially coping with challenging collaborators), and shepherding the statistician's career. Topics to be covered include how to write grant/statistical sections, how to review an article or grant, statistical collaboration vs. fee-for-service, discussing authorship, and ensuring reproducible research. The primary target audience is consulting statisticians, especially those in applied environments and young investigators. We anticipate clinical researchers from fields such as epidemiology, psychology, economics, and psychiatry also may have interest.
