How to get free statistical help from UVM College of Medicine

Assistance may include:
 Statistical analysis plan
 Power calculations
 Other study design issues
Up to 5 hours of assistance per grant application is available without charge.*

Note that if
additional hours are required, the usual consultation fees to investigators will apply. It will also
be expected that anything in excess of 5 hours of assistance will result in the inclusion of at least
5% effort for the consulting statistician in the budget of any resulting grant application. If less
effort is required, then a fee for service agreement may be negotiated. The applicant agrees to
provide the Medical Biostatistics/Biometry Facility with electronic copy of any resulting grant
application and budget that are submitted. Only salaried LCOM faculty members or trainees with a primary mentor that is a salaried LCOM faculty member are eligible for this free consultation program. *Funding support from the LCOM Dean’s Office will provide this service on a trial basis for the 2019 calendar year.
