# Scientific & Technical Core

> **NIH NIH P2C** · UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON · 2021 · $317,565

## Abstract

Scientific Core 
The new Scientific Core integrates three pre-existing cores: Data and Methods Core, Computing Core, and 
Biodemography Core. Bringing each of these cores under one supervisory umbrella improves communication 
and efficiencies, better leveraging resources for faculty affiliates. As newly designed, the Scientific Core’s 
leadership and staff provide consultations and services for Biodemography, Data Science and Demography, 
Spatial Demography, and Statistical Demography. Biodemography staff facilitate the inclusion of biological 
data and data collection into population research and offer shared laboratory facilities. Data Science staff 
provide cutting-edge technical programming support, database application development, large-scale data 
management, high performance computing, and computational science consults. Statistical Demography staff 
provide consultations on statistical approaches, software, and programming. Spatial Demography staff provide 
consultations on GIS methodologies and analyses. The NWFSRDC staff facilitates access to the enclave by 
support for applications to the federal agencies, project establishment within the enclave, data management 
within the enclave, and PI data security assurances. In sum, the Scientific Core contributes to CSDE’s mission 
by providing expert consultations at every stage of the research process in a cost-effective way so that CSDE 
affiliates remain productive and focused on advancing innovations and insights in population science.
