I am looking for an expert in survey epidemiology or statistics in the school who could collaborate with me for a grant based on household surveys in Washington, DC.: The goal of this project is to investigate family-level barriers to participation in genetic studies of mental disorders in African American families living in Washington, DC metropolis, through household surveys. It would require survey methods of probability sampling of units to administer questionnaires surveying people's attitudes. The analytic methods would require multi-level or hierarchical cluster statistical methods. My contact information is listed below.
