Giving

Thanks to the generosity of its partners and donors, the Department of Biostatistics and Health Data Science is able to serve as a leading research partner across the health sciences at Indiana University and beyond. There are several ways for individuals who wish to give to support the Department of Biostatistics.

Biostatistics Gift Account

The most flexible way to support the department, the Biostatistics Gift Account allows the department to use your gift for its area of greatest need.

Barry P. Katz Lectureship in Biostatistics and Data Sciences

Named for the founding chair of the Department of Biostatistics, the Barry P. Katz Lectureship in Biostatistics and Data Sciences fund supports an annual lecture that brings together the brightest minds from all health sciences to consider how data informs medical decisions. Barry Katz, Ph.D., was the founding chair of the Department and this endowed lecture was created at the time of his retirement in 2020.

Gifts may be made to each of these accounts from IU payroll, or on an annual or one-time basis. For more information on ways to help advance medical research at IU School of Medicine, please contact Caitie Deranek Stewart, senior associate director of major gifts, at cderanek@iu.edu or 317-278-2133.
