"My educational and research experiences at Berkeley have exceeded all of my expectations. Not only are the faculty in my department at the very cutting-edge for new biostatistics methodology, but the opportunities for collaboration with other faculty in the School of Public Health and the entire campus are endless. When I graduate, I hope to obtain a position where I can continue working on innovative methods while also applying them to answer important real-world public health research questions."AREAS OF CONCENTRATION
Biostatistics
Many issues in the health, medical, and biological sciences are addressed by collecting and exploring relevant data. The development and application of techniques to better understand such data is the fundamental concern of the Group in Biostatistics. The program offers training in theory of statistics and biostatistics, computer implementation of analytic methods, and opportunities to use this knowledge in areas of biological/medical research. The resources and facilities in the School of Public Health and the Department of Statistics, together with those of other university departments, offer a broad set of opportunities to satisfy the needs of individual students. Involvement of faculty from the Department of Biostatistics & Epidemiology at UC San Francisco enriches instructional and research activities.
