BIOSTATISTICS TOASTS 40-YEAR HISTORY
The Department of Biostatistics in the Rollins School of Public Health celebrated its 40th anniversary on Oct. 22. The event included an overview of the department’s history, a poster presentation session and several guest speakers who discussed technical aspects of biostatistics.

Attendees included Wanzer Drane and Bob Mosteller, the department’s first doctoral and master’s students, respectively, as well as a host of other alumni, emeritus faculty and current students and professors.

The celebration doubled as a retirement party for Donna Brogan, emerita professor of biostatistics, who served on the Emory faculty for 33 years. Brogan was one of the speakers who told the story of the department’s history, as well.
