SEMINARS

Biostatistics Seminars

The department's Biostatistics Seminar Series (EPBI 503) is offered as a way for students and faculty in biostatistics to present their work or other topics of their choosing to an audience with a strong background in biostatistics. Generally, the seminars are held on the third Thursday of each month during the fall and spring semesters from 12 noon until 1 PM in Room W-G73 of the Medical School, the department's seminar room. The seminar series is organized by Jeffrey M. Albert.


Genetic Epidemiology Seminars

All Genetic Epidemiology students are required to attend and to register, and others are welcome to come. All seminars will begin approximately at noon, and are held at MetroHealth Medical Center, in the Rammelkamp Building, either in Room R219 or R419.


Graduate Student Seminars

The Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics Graduate Student Seminar (EPBI 501) is held during the fall and spring semesters each Tuesday from 12 noon until 1 PM in Medical School E501. In these seminars, students in the department present critical reviews of published articles in epidemiology, biostatistics, and health services research.

Students presenting must give Donna Marine a copy of the paper they will discuss one week in advance so that it can be copied for students and faculty to review prior to the seminar. Please contact Donna Marine at dmm33@case.edu or in WG-57 for schedule information.


Health Services Research Seminars

Health Services Research student seminars are held on the second Thursday of each month. The program varies from month to month. Generally, the seminars offer students a chance to get to know Health Services Research faculty and other students, to hear about the dissertation and thesis process, and to learn about career opportunities in Health Services Research. This year the seminars will take place in WG-73 from 12 noon until 1:15 PM.


Research Seminar Series

The Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics presents a series of research seminars each fall and spring semester. Most often, these seminars are held on the fourth Thursday of each month from 12:00 noon until 1:15 PM in BRB 105; occasionally they occur on a different Thursday of the month. The primary purpose of the research seminar series is to report on planned or completed research, or research in progress, by faculty and students of the department. On occasion, topics of interest are presented by outside speakers. The seminars are accredited by the Accreditation Council on Continuing Medical Education (CME) for 1.0 category 1 credit hour.

From time to time the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics sponsors Special Seminars either on topics of current interest, or given by invited lecturers. Please check the listing for topics, locations, and times for these seminars.
