Consultation Services

The Health Research Group (HRCG) was formed in 1990 to provide the medical research and business communities with expert assistance primarily in areas related to statistics and epidemiology. HRCG has provided consultation on well over 900 research projects to date, many with papers published in peer-reviewed journals.

Our faculty include epidemiologists, statisticians, physicians, nutritionists, health administrators, and health educators. We are able to draw on a wide range of experience in international health research, evaluation, and administration. Several of our faculty are principal investigators working on projects funded by multimillion-dollar governmental grants. HRCG uses state-of-the-art technology for data collection and analysis.
