MGH Biostatistics has a long history of involving students in our research. Some investigators in our group started out as graduate students engaged in research projects while in school. We work with a wide range of data types, including electronic health records, clinical trials, and observational cohort studies. Contributions range from the development of analytic plans, statistical analysis, manuscript preparation, and more.
Students (bolded) have contributed as coauthors to several publications in our group. Below are some of these articles that have been published since 2020.
