Guidelines for budgeting biostatistics involvement in research projects.
This paper seeks to help biostatisticians develop realistic budgets for their involvement in research projects. The approach is to list categories of expenses and associated questions about the types and levels of projected costs that the budget planner needs to consider. I subdivide the expense categories into smaller subcomponents that should provide for better planning. I also propose an algorithm for determining hourly rates.
