How well-regarded is Brown Biostatistics?

I'm curious as to how their PhD graduates place in jobs and academia?

I recall that cyberwulf has usually said it's about the tenth best biostat program (I think that's roughly Columbia/MD Anderson/UCLA territory in US News for whatever that's worth).  They have an alum who is the stat/analytics director for the NFL right now, so I wouldn't worry about industry too much. They've had some decent academic placements I think-- I thought they had someone become a professor at Minnesota biostat, although I might be misremembering which department at Minnesota they are in.  Given the size of the program, there's not really a big pool of students to be achieving gaudy placements or titles with, so I wouldn't be too worried myself if their top placements aren't quite as amazing as somewhere else that's bigger and has more bites at the apple.
