Welcome to Medical College of Wisconsin Quantitative Health Sciences
Our mission is to provide scientifically valid, efficient and dependable research support for study design, data management and analysis of laboratory, animal and clinical studies. In partnership with Children's Research Institute, QHS will help train junior researchers, work with more mature researchers in obtaining and maintaining funding, and develop standardized data management protocols which facilitate the collection of quality data.
We at QHS are available to work with you on your grant proposals, study design, data analysis and many more. We have been working closely with the investigators through email communications and WebEx meetings. If you need any help, please feel free to contact Cindy Feltz (cfeltz@mcw.edu).
We provide assistance with:
- Animal studies: toxicology, deterministic and behavioral
- Clinical trials: parallel arm, sequential and alternative designs, cross-sectional and longitudinal
- Epidemiological studies: case control, cluster and cohort studies
- Genetic studies: SNPS, genetic pathways
- Health services research: outcomes, quality control and questionnaire design
- Laboratory investigations: in vitro, assay modeling and drug shelf duration
- Observational and weighted surveys: simple and complex designs
