## Abstract

SUMMARY/ABSTRACT 
The use of modern statistical methods, analytic techniques, data processing and database design is necessary 
in translational research in neuroblastoma (NB). The Biostatistics Core of this program project (PPG), which 
comprises biostatistical experts in clinical and translational study design and analysis, Dr. Susan Groshen 
(Core Director), Dr. Richard Sposto, and Dr. Yimei Li, and an experienced staff, will play the central role in 
fulfilling this requirement. The primary responsibility of the Biostatistics Core is to ensure that appropriate and 
efficient statistical designs and analyses are employed in the research. To this end, members of the 
Biostatistics Core will involve themselves in the design of laboratory experiments and clinical studies 
conducted during this program project. The Core will identify, adapt, or develop appropriate statistical design 
and analysis methods, will analyze data, produce coherent and complete reports of the results of these 
analyzes, and co-author papers reporting these results. In addition, the Biostatistics Core, collaborating with 
Core B, will play an important role in developing and conducting clinical trials undertaken based on the results 
of Projects 1 through 5, monitoring the safety of patients enrolled on these trials, and ensuring the quality and 
integrity of the data collected from these trials. Core C is essential to the overall success of the translational 
mandate of this Program.
