|
|
The purpose of this FOA is to invite R21 applications proposing the innovative analysis of existing (publicly available) nationally representative U.S. cross-sectional and longitudinal data, to investigate novel scientific ideas and/or to generate new models, systems, tools, methods, or technologies that have the potential for significant impact on biomedical or biobehavioral research in areas relevant to the FDA CTP. Other publicly available data sets would be considered depending on the analyses to be conducted; however, nationally representative analyses will receive priority. Application due date: March 8, 2023.

Michigan Public Health Master of Science Degree in Computational Epidemiology and Systems Modeling
In this program, students are trained to become highly skilled epidemiologists who can understand and analyze public health problems with mathematical and statistical models.
Epidemiological models and simulation-based analyses are increasingly used to inform public health policy and practice. Notably, throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, government agencies, policy-makers and others have used epidemiological models to help inform decision-making and slow the spread of the virus.
