Who we help

Researchers at Iowa State (graduate students, faculty, staff, undergraduates doing research.). We assume you know statistical fundamentals (eg. STAT 401); students are expected to perform as many of the computations as possible.

It is the responsibility of the researcher to provide ample time for statistical analyses - depending on the complexity of the problem and the current workload, a few weeks may be required.

We do not provide help with your statistics homework - please see your TA.

What we do

  • research design, sample size calculations
  • writing statistical methods for grant applications
  • choosing statistical methods
  • use of SAS or R to analyze data
  • interpretation of results
