The Biostatistics and
Bioinformatics Branch is an intramural research program within the Division of
Epidemiology, Statistics & Prevention Research (DESPR) at the Eunice
Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health & Human Development. The
Division's mission is to conduct original research focusing on human reproduction
and development, pregnancy, and child and adolescent health. Branch members

of epidemiological, behavioral and clinical studies. Specific research
interests of the Branch members include: Bayesian methods, longitudinal data
analysis, the analysis of biomarker data, methods for diagnostic tests and
measurement agreement, survival analysis, risk modeling, statistical genetics,
and bioinformatics, and multiple comparisons. Much of the statistical research
is motivated by collaborative research with DESPR investigators. Postdoctoral
fellows will have the opportunity to develop an exciting statistical research
program related to statistical problems encountered in DESPR scientific studies.
They will also have the opportunity to collaborate with DESPR investigators on
important studies.
