The Biostatistics Core at the Bayview Clinical Research Units (CRU) supports clinical and translational researchers through protocol review, consultation, collaboration, teaching, and methodologic innovation. It is part of the Johns Hopkins Biostatistics for Clinical and Translational Research (Biostats CenTeR) and is sponsored by The Johns Hopkins Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (ICTR).

Consultative Services: The Biostatistics Core provides consultation in study design, protocol development, analysis planning, and manuscript preparation mainly through scheduled appointments. To request a consultation appointment, please fill out the online Consultation Request through the ICTR Connection Request System and a consultant will contact you, normally within 1 business day, to set up an appointment. Log in using your JHED ID and indicate "Bayview" as the preferred location.

Walk-in Sessions: The Biostatistics Core also offers brief consultation through its walk-in consultation service. The walk-in session is designed to provide a quick evaluation of statistical issues concerning a clinical / translational research project to provide an answer during the consultation or to set up a subsequent appointment to work on the issues further. We expect to serve 3 to 4 investigators during each hourly walk-in session. The walk-in sessions are normally held from 1-2pm on Tuesdays and 2-3pm on Fridays in the B-Building. Sign up begins at 10 minutes prior to the start of each session as is "first come, first served". Please see Margaret Cesnick or Debra Grudzien at B-Building, 3rd Floor, Room 300 to sign up. Please complete the Consultation Request Form and bring it with you to your consultation session. Please check the CRU-Bayview home page for schedule or location changes for walk-in sessions.
