The long-term objective of the Center for Integrated Environmental Health Sciences (CIEHS) is to build a framework that integrates studies on the interactions between combined exposure to pollutants and life style factors), in order to understand their role in human health and disease risk at various life stages and as modified by gender. The Biostatistics and Informatics Facility Core (BIFC) plays a vital role in supporting CIEHS research by providing state-of-the-art statistical and bioinformatics support and training to all CIEHS members. The BIFC is an essential resource for designing systematic acquisition and deposition of preclinical and clinical data as well as for providing intellectual input required for rigorous data analysis. Building the framework to integrate translational basic science research on pollution and lifestyle cofactors influencing chronic disease risk requires sophisticated statistical support. The BIFC addresses this need by using state-of- art techniques related to statistics and informatics as it serves CIEHS members during all phases of their studies. The BIFC provides seamless infrastructure and support to CIEHS member research, including preclinical-basic science, patient-oriented clinical research (e.g., the diagnosis, prevention, and therapy of environmentally-related disorders), public health/population-based research, and community-engaged / community-led research. The aims of the BIFC are: 1. Provide state-of-the-art statistical support in design, analysis and dissemination of findings of a range of basic science, translational, clinical, population health and environmental epidemiology studies; 2. Provide support for the integration of multi-omics data from both animal and human studies; 3. Facilitate integration of exposure data with lifestyle factors to identify effect modifiers and mediators of the health effects of environmental exposures; 4. Educate center investigators, staff and trainees in new methods related to statistics/omics approaches applicable to their research activities. Areas of special interest include, repeated measures models, measurement error, spatio-temporal methods, computational biology, statistical genetics, clinical informatics and Bayesian methods. Several CIEHS members currently use the statistical support services of the BIFC Director and staff, demonstrating both need and productive interactions. An IDeA grant to the Kentucky Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network and INBRE provides partial support for some BIFC bioinformatics personnel and access to a variety of bioinformatics and statistical tools. By leveraging and building upon existing resources at UofL, the BIFC is able to facilitate access and use of these resources by CIEHS members and expand statistical and bioinformatics support in a more cost efficient manner.

综合环境健康科学中心（CIEHS）的长期目标是建立一个 框架整合了有关污染物的联合接触与生活方式之间相互作用的研究 因素），为了了解它们在各个生活阶段的人类健康和疾病风险中的作用， 通过性别修改。生物统计学和信息学设施核心（BIFC）在支持方面起着至关重要的作用 CIEHS研究通过向所有CIEHS提供最先进的统计和生物信息学支持和培训 成员。 BIFC是设计系统地获取和沉积临床前的重要资源 以及临床数据以及提供严格数据分析所需的智力输入。建造 整合有关影响污染和生活方式辅助因素的转化基础科学研究的框架 慢性疾病风险需要复杂的统计支持。 BIFC通过使用最先进来满足这一需求 与统计和信息学有关的艺术技术在其各个阶段都为CIEHS成员提供服务 研究。 BIFC为CIEHS成员研究提供了无缝的基础架构和支持，包括 临床前基础科学，面向患者的临床研究（例如，诊断，预防和治疗 与环境有关的疾病），基于公共卫生 /人群的研究以及社区参与 / 社区主导的研究。 BIFC的目的是：1。在设计中提供最先进的统计支持， 分析和传播一系列基础科学，翻译，临床，人口健康和 环境流行病学研究； 2。为两种动物的多摩斯数据的整合提供支持 和人类研究； 3。促进曝光数据与生活方式因素的整合，以识别效应修饰符 以及环境暴露对健康影响的调解人； 4。教育中心调查员，员工和 与适用于其研究活动的统计/OMIC方法有关的新方法的受训者。区域 特殊兴趣包括，重复测量模型，测量误差，时空方法， 计算生物学，统计遗传学，临床信息学和贝叶斯方法。几个ciehs 成员目前使用BIFC董事和员工的统计支持服务，证明了这两种需求 和生产互动。给肯塔基生物医学研究基础设施网络的想法授予 inbre为某些BIFC生物信息学人员提供了部分支持，并获得了各种各样的机会 生物信息学和统计工具。通过利用和建立UOFL的现有资源，BIFC是 能够促进CIEHS成员访问和使用这些资源，并扩大统计和 生物信息学以更具成本效益的方式支持。
