This program is a collaborative endeavor of the Food and Drug Administration’s Oncology Center of Excellence (FDA-OCE), the American Statistical Association (ASA), and the ASA’s Biopharmaceutical Statistics Section (BIOP). The program is open to PhD students in biostatistics or statistics programs who have passed their program’s qualifying examinations or to current post-doctoral fellows in biostatistics or statistics with a specific interest in oncology drug development. Participants must have completed coursework in clinical trials design and in survival analysis. This fellowship is a unique opportunity for statistics and biostatistics graduate students and post-doctoral fellows to learn about oncology drug development and regulatory policy. There is no cost to participate. For more information and to apply visit https://community.amstat.org/fdaoceasaoncologyeducationalfellowship/home.
