New biostatistics PhD offers vital public health expertise

Biostatistics plays a vital and growing role in the field of public health, providing the analytical foundation for understanding health trends and making evidence-based decisions. As the volume and complexity of health data increases, especially in this new age of artificial intelligence (AI), there is a critical need for biostatistical expertise.

The purpose of this project is for TouchPoint Baltimore to identify and understand how their services can fit into the identified needs of the surrounding Mondawmin community. TouchPoint Baltimore’s mission is to nurture collaborations across Baltimore by developing personal connections to ensure everyone is lifted up. To do this, they strive to empower their communities and neighbors. One goal of TouchPoint is to promote the public health of the greater Mondawmin community.
