Other Information:
Where meaningful intellectual contribution to the formulation of a research question or the analytic scheme for a
research paper has been provided by the statistical consultant, it is expected that Biostatistics personnel will be
offered co-authorship on consequent publications and presentations.
If the investigator is a student, resident or fellow, his/her faculty advisor must be present at the initial meeting.
