## Abstract

Project Summary: Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Core (Core F)
 The overall goal of the Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Core is to ensure high-quality statistical and data
management support and training for CFAR investigators in the design, implementation, analysis, and
publication stages of HIV/AIDS-related research. In keeping with this purpose, Core F will provide biostatistical
and bioinformatics services to investigators, provide access to group and individual training opportunities, and
secure linkages between investigators and biostatisticians, who can assist with methodological developments
to address non-standard study design and data analytic challenges in basic, clinical, translational, and
social/behavioral research. Educational opportunities available to CFAR investigators through Core F will
include tutorials, seminars, and specialty training on emerging analytic topics in HIV research. Advanced
biostatistics services available will include the development of novel analytic techniques to strengthen
HIV/AIDS projects dependent on genomic and metabolomics data, analysis of spatiotemporal patterns of
disease and treatment, causal inference, mathematical modeling of transmission dynamics, and the effective
evaluation of virologic and immunological assays and utilization of the resulting data. The Core will provide
support for the Emory CFAR Scientific Working Groups (SWGs), and maintain effective cross-core
collaborations with the Developmental, Clinical Research, Prevention Science, Immunology, and Virology and
Molecular Biomarkers Cores through the establishment of liaison biostatisticians. The Core will secure added
value to the Emory CFAR as a whole, by enabling and enhancing the scientific rigor of HIV/AIDS research
undertaken by CFAR investigators.
