Welcome to UCD CSTAR

UCD CSTAR is the Centre for Support and Training in Analysis and Research. It specialises in the biostatistical and methodological areas of health research, particularly quantitative.

UCD CSTAR, which was supported for its first 3 years by the Health Research Board, is now operating as an independent centre based in University College Dublin, Belfield. We offer a consultancy and training service to individuals and institutions carrying out health research in Ireland.

For further information on what we offer, please click here. If you have a specific query and would like to find out how we can help, contact us.

We are hosting our 4th Open Science ReproducibiliTEA journal club over lunchtime in Jan 2025 from 1-2pm in Link 3 of the UCD James Joyce Library. Date TBD. All are welcome! More information here.

Our Statistics with R course will take place from 10-12 Dec. More info at this link. We are also running a new half-day Intro to Data Visualisation w/R course. You can register for both now
