Dr. Peter Gilbert shares insights about his work with HIV vaccine efficacy trials in relation to the recent PrEPVacc study. Gilbert said, "The result was that, for each vaccine, there is close to a 50-50 chance that the vaccine elevated acquisition risk vs. the vaccine was safe, as a synthesis of results over multiple ways to do the analysis, most importantly considering different prior distributions for vaccine efficacy."

Congratulations to Garnet Anderson (PhD ’89), senior vice president and director of the Public Health Sciences Division at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center and an affiliate professor of biostatistics at the UW School of Public Health, who was one of 36 scientists named to the Washington State Academy of Life Sciences. 

"As a biostatistician, I get to bring my quantitative and critical thinking skills to wide range of problems." Congratulations to Yates Coley, PhD, on their 2024 Health Care Heroes award from the Puget Sound Business Journal.
