Stat programs that would go well with biostatistics

[GoPackGo89]

I have a list of Biostatistics programs that i'll be applying to + Wisconsin Stats (for their biostats). Are there other strong Stat programs for someone who thinks they want to get into biomedical research or are the best biostatisticians already in biostatistics departments?

For example a few Professor Xs whose work is motivated by medical research at a well regarded statistics department versus lesser known biostats departments.

I'm juggling a couple paths: Getting a strong theoretical foundation in statistics and bringing that into biostats research vs going right into biostatistics training (I know the theoretical foundation I'll be getting will vary by program)

I hope this question makes sense
