In November 1967, the late David L. Sackett saw his germ of an idea – a division within McMaster University dedicated to developing a focus of applied research methodologic expertise – blossom into the Department of Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics (CE&B). More than 50 years later, the department – now under the moniker of Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact (HEI) - is a world leader and innovator in the fields of clinical trials methodology, health economics, biostatistics, public health, medical informatics and health policy.
