 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Summer Institute for Research Education in Biostatistics (SIBS) program has established a highly effective network of SIBS sites. There is essential need and interest in a new SIBS program in the western US in order to broaden the reach of the program. The Colorado Summer Institute for Biostatistics (CoSIBS) will meet the need and extend the reach of the SIBS network. In keeping with the program objectives, CoSIBS will inspire the next generation of biostatisticians and data scientists to pursue advanced study and research careers in the biomedical, behavioral, and quantitative health sciences. We will recruit an enthusiastic and diverse group of advanced undergraduate and early-stage graduate students who are interested in exploring the frontiers of data sciences in the development and application of new methods for using big data to guide the diagnosis, care, and prevention of disease. The proposal is structured to provide innovative educational programs using the established research in biomedical data sciences with NHLBI-related research programs that cut across departments at University of Colorado Denver and affiliated institutions. The proposal draws together a range of faculty including faculty from the Department of Biostatistics and Informatics, the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, and faculty from other departments with research interests in bioinformatics and other aspects of data sciences. CoSIBS will be a 6-week resident summer institute for approximately 20 advanced undergraduate students or recent graduates. The institute will consist of approximately 4 hours per day of class and laboratory instruction. The didactic portion will be at a standard that would be typical of a one-year course in basic statistics as often required in undergraduate curricula. In addition, students will have mentored projects that are tied to ongoing research groups at UCD and affiliated institutions. Projects will be co-mentored by a data scientist specialist in biostatistics, statistical genetics, or bioinformatics, and a companio biomedical investigator from a leading NHLBI-related research group at UCD. The projects will reinforce course content in study design, data analysis, software applications, and the preparation of results for publication or presentation to biomedical researchers.

 描述（由申请人提供）：生物统计学研究教育夏季研究所 (SIBS) 计划已建立了一个高效的 SIBS 站点网络，为了扩大影响范围，美国西部对新的 SIBS 计划非常有需求和兴趣。科罗拉多州夏季生物统计学研究所 (CoSIBS) 将满足 SIBS 网络的需求并扩大其范围，以实现该项目的目标，CoSIBS 将激励下一代生物统计学家和数据科学家。在生物医学、行为和定量健康科学领域追求高级学习和研究职业我们将招募一群充满热情、多元化的高年级本科生和早期研究生，他们有兴趣探索数据科学在开发和应用领域的前沿。使用大数据指导疾病诊断、护理和预防的新方法该提案旨在利用生物医学数据科学研究的既定研究以及跨科罗拉多大学丹佛分校的 NHLBI 相关研究项目来提供创新的教育项目。该提案汇集了一个CoSIBS 的一系列教职人员，包括生物统计和信息学系、数学和统计科学系以及其他对生物信息学和数据科学其他方面有研究兴趣的系系的教职人员，将成为为期约 6 周的暑期学院。该学院将有 20 名高年级本科生或应届毕业生，每天包括大约 4 小时的课堂和实验室教学，教学部分将按照基础统计学中通常要求的一年制课程的标准进行。此外，学生还将接受与都柏林大学及其附属机构正在进行的研究小组相关的指导项目，这些项目将由生物统计学、统计遗传学或生物信息学方面的数据科学家专家以及来自生物医学研究人员的同伴共同指导。都柏林大学的一个领先的 NHLBI 相关研究小组将加强研究设计、数据分析、软件应用以及为生物医学研究人员发表或演示的结果的准备方面的课程内容。
