Dale Rhoda is a founder and biostatistician with over a decade advising global public health surveys and designing complex sampling and analysis strategies for agencies like WHO, UNICEF, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. He combines deep statistical expertise—from small area estimation and gridded population sampling frames to touchscreen data-entry error research—with practical implementation experience gained across surveys in Latin America, Africa, Asia, and the U.S. His prior work for NASA, FAA and other U.S. agencies and early career aviation-weather research reflect a rare blend of policy, operations research, and technical modeling. Dale trains consultants internationally and led updates to WHO vaccination coverage survey guidance, and he is particularly focused on clear communication and visualization of survey results and measuring vaccine hesitancy. Based in Columbus, Ohio, he runs Biostat Global Consulting, delivering bespoke statistical solutions to public health and government clients.
