Summer Institute in Biostatistics and Data Science, Summer 2022
The UTMB Summer Institute in Biostatistics and Data Science (SIBDS) is sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI). The comprehensive seven-week summer training course (from June 13 – July 29) on biostatistics and principles of data science combines classroom learning with career mentoring and hands-on data analysis using data collected from clinical studies in prevention and treatment of infectious, immune-mediated, and chronic diseases. Designed to address a growing imbalance between the demand and supply for biostatisticians and data scientists, the course targets rising junior and senior undergraduates who are interested in learning about biostatistics and encourages them to consider graduate programs related to biostatistics and data science. The typical curricula include an intensive introduction to biostatistical approaches and research by exposing participants to the principles, methodologies, uses, and applications of statistical methods in biomedical and clinical research.
