The
July Office Hours focused on survey and statistical support for researchers
across campus. The session introduced REDCap as the HIPAA-capable, flexible
platform for collecting and managing health and sensitive data, with features
like longitudinal study support, mobile integration, and API functionality. In
addition, the Survey & Data Consulting team highlighted their role in
guiding survey design, statistical methods, and access to datasets, while also
supporting tools such as Qualtrics, SPSS, SAS, Stata, R, and Python. The
session made clear that researchers at Illinois are not left to navigate these
tools alone—they have expert consultants available to guide them through every
step of survey and data analysis.
