Your Gift
Your gift facilitates the Department of Biostatistics in: developing, applying and translating statistical reasoning and methods to advance knowledge in public health and biomedicine; collaborating with health science colleagues to make high-impact discoveries in their fields; providing outstanding training in the interpretation, use, expert application, and specialty development of biostatistical science at Johns Hopkins and beyond; and advancing public health.
For over a century, our Department has been leading scholarship at the interface of statistical science and health-oriented scientific domain fields.
Your gift allows our Department to:
- Sponsor student scholarships and internships to attract and train the most talented future leaders and practitioners in the field.
- Endow chairs by which we can attract the brightest emerging faculty and retain them through the heights of their careers.
- Support faculty research to improve how we learn from health data, and create a means to discover and influence genetic and molecular bases for health and disease.
- Develop expertise crucial to achieve the promise of “big data” for improved population assessment, monitoring, and health promotion, and develop methods and models to better characterize disease, discover its etiology, and describe its impacts.
- Creates innovative avenues for disseminating our knowledge, discoveries, and tools to the widest possible audiences and for the greatest impact.
