conducting literature searches and reviews, developing testable hypotheses, conducting statistical data
analyses to test these hypotheses, and writing up the results in publishable form, under the guidance of, and
in co-authorship with, senior members of the research team. The fellow will use techniques such as
survival analysis, hierarchical linear modeling, propensity weighting, and factor analysis.
