## Abstract

ABSTRACT
 The Biostatistics Shared Resource (BSR) plays an essential role in the research activities of the
University of Hawaiʻi Cancer Center (UHCC). The BSR provides support and consultation for all quantitative
aspects of research, including study design issues, grant and protocol review, data management, systems
development, data processing, data analysis, and manuscript preparation. Collaboration ranges from short-
term advice to substantive input on projects, including serving as co-investigators and key personnel on
research grants. Members of the BSR make critical contributions to clinical protocol review through the UHCC-
based protocol review an monitoring system (PRMS). The UHCC BSR is unique in that it can provide insight
and support for studies of multiethnic populations, as well as of populations of the Pacific. The overarching
goal of the BSR is to ensure sound analytic principles are followed, thereby improving the quality of the
research enterprise of the Cancer Center. The BSR also enhances the statistical infrastructure needed for
cancer research in the UHCC catchment area, including: provision, with the Hawaiʻi Tumor Registry and the
Hawaiʻi Comprehensive Cancer Control Program, of ethnic-specific denominators and cancer incidence and
mortality rates; support for use of national and regional census, nutritional and genomic databases; and
training of cancer researchers in the fundamentals of statistical analysis and data management through
mentoring and classes, particularly on aspects of studies in multiethnic populations. The Biostatistics Shared
Resource enables the UHCC researchers to optimally design, analyze and interpret cancer research studies in
order to reduce the burden of cancer through prevention and treatment.
