ABOUT CISES

The Center is now closed. We have established this 'mini-site' to preserve some of its resources such as technical reports, research project information, and talks.

The Center for Integrating Statistical and Environmental Science supported research in the development of new statistical methods for addressing environmental problems and for integrating the use of statistics throughout the process of risk assessment.  The Center's main objective was to advance the use of statistical methods to assess the state of the physical environment and its impact on human and ecological health.

CISES was funded by the United States Environmental Protection Agency through Science To Achieve Results (STAR) Cooperative Agreement #R-82940201 to the University of Chicago.
