POISSON HERE.TITLE: Being in CollaborationABSTRACT:\u00a0There are many ways to be a biostatistician. Beyond whether you identify as a Bayesian or frequentist - beyond whether your expertise is in time-to-event analysis, missing data, or genetics - we each have a role in the broader community of science and research. In this presentation we will explore the role of the biostatistician as a team scientist and collaborative researcher. While examples will be drawn from experiences in an academic medical center, the principles of communication, leadership, statistical expertise, and domain knowledge apply across settings. Here, at the beginning of a new academic year, let\u2019s take a moment to celebrate our unique abilities and the joy of seeing their impacts \u2013 big and small \u2013 in the world around us.ABOUT THE PRESENTER: Dr. Laila Poisson, PhD, exemplifies the collaborative nature of biostatistics in addressing issues of significance in public health and medicine using data and science. A 2009 graduate of the Biostatistics PhD program at Michigan, Dr. Poisson has since become a nationally recognized leader in neuro-oncology research, data integration, and biostatistics education.She currently serves as Vice Chair of Biostatistics in the Department of Public Health Sciences and a Senior Scientist in the Hermelin Brain Tumor Center at Henry Ford Health in Detroit. In parallel, she is a Research Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Michigan State University.Click here to read more about Dr. Poisson and learn more about the Significant Alumni Award.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"136527-21878785@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/136527", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":"1690 SPH I", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Sessions"], "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/p\/track\/14642", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Sessions @ Michigan", "group_id":"4791", "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21878785 } , "137968-21882341": { "datetime_modified":"20250828T123256", "datetime_start":"20250828T150000", "datetime_end":"20250828T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-08-28", "date_end":"2025-08-28", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"University Connection Speaker Series: Meet INL Recruiters - Beyondthe Booth", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"University Connection Speaker Series: Meet INL Recruiters - Beyondthe Booth", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Careers \/ Jobs", "event_type_id":"2", "description":"Join us for an engaging and interactive session where you can connect with INL recruiters beyond the traditional career fair booth.
