Project Pitch Session
Pairing projects in need with eager MS Biostatistics students
Stamler Conference Room680 N Lake Shore Drive, Suite 1400
Do you have a dataset in need of analysis?
Are you low on funds for statistical support for analyses?
Do you have projects on the “backburner” indefinitely?
Consider pitching your project and ideas to a group of MS Biostatistics students.
- Each presenter will have approximately five minutes to “pitch” his/her project to the students
- Students will rank projects in order of preference during the session
- MS Leadership will match each presenter with a student according to skillset and interests
Each MS student will complete a Thesis (Deadline for completion of project:
April 26, 2019) that will take the form of:
- A publishable paper presenting results of an analysis he/she completed
- Formatted according to a target journal, but general formatting for original manuscript applies (Introduction, Methods, Results, Conclusions with appropriate tables and figures)
- Ranging from 2500-3500 words
Students will have a primary thesis advisor (faculty member from the Department of Preventive Medicine), and those pitching the project must be willing to serve as a secondary thesis advisor (at minimum).
If you are interested, please complete this survey: http://j.mp/2L9VNcI
