The BERD Methods Core builds agreements with partners across the School of Medicine by forming Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) that:
- Allow collaborative groups to cover a portion of full-time equivalent effort (i.e., not in the form of fee-for-service) for faculty and staff in BERD.
- Outline the amount of effort that a group of collaborative biostatisticians will dedicate to a partnering Investigator, Department, Division, Center, or other research organization for a long term partnership.
