CIBE Support
CIBE provides a full spectrum of research design and analytic support designed to enhance the rigor and competitiveness of grant proposals and scientific publications. CIBE support includes expert guidance on protocol development, proposal or manuscript review, study design, selection of measures, and creation of questionnaire or data collection tools; advanced consultation on innovative trial methodologies such as adaptive designs; precise sample size and power computations; and tailored strategies for data access, management, and analysis — from conventional sampling plans to complex and high-dimensional omics data. CIBE also supports the development and implementation of statistical analysis plans, application of advanced analytic methods, interpretation of results, and the drafting and revision of manuscripts and abstracts for preclinical, clinical, and population health studies.
