The Future • Upgrade the Activity Tracking System to follow: – the life cycle of grants, protocols, manuscripts, – the effect of training and collaboration on investigator success. • Increase capacity for qualitative endpoints collaboration. • Encourage junior Biostatistics faculty to compete for ICTR pilot grants. • Improve interaction between UW and Marshfield Clinic Biostatistics Research Resources.
Examples of Collaboration Clinical Trials Wisconsin Network for Health Research (Wi. NHR) presented by Mary Lindstrom Stat-Gen Statistical Genetics and Genomics Program presented by Christina Kendziorski
Wisconsin Network for Health Research (Wi. NHR) • A statewide network of clinical sites to collaborate on trials of • Diagnostic, preventative and therapeutic interventions • Comparative effectiveness • Expands capabilities of Wisconsin researchers • More studies done faster • Population of > 3 million • Centralizes some aspects of the research • Data management • IRB approval process • Statistical analysis • Each site has a PI and local research staff
Wi. NHR Sites Marshfield Clinic Gundersen Lutheran UW-Madison Aurora Health Care
Wi. NHR Studies • Protocols • come from all participating sites • are funded independently • Studies • 9 ongoing, 1 completed • 712 patients accrued • 8 different lead investigators • 9/10 studies use 3 or 4 sites.
