Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design (BERD) Unit

The Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design (BERD) unit of the TN-CTSI provides easily-accessible consultation and data analysis to help investigators produce scientifically rigorous, reproducible, and publishable research. The unit combines experts in epidemiology, biostatistics, biomedical informatics, community engagement and molecular informatics. We aim to efficiently and effectively connect investigators to practical analytical & technical resources. We encourage investigators to invest in BERD skills development by offering a range of user-friendly educational opportunities for individuals of all skill levels. The BERD unit also promotes innovations in tools and methods that address barriers to clinical and translational research.
