Parcel Chair of Public Health, Professor of Biostatistics and Data Science, and Director of the Coordinating Center for Clinical Trials.^[1]

Davis had leadership roles in four influential hypertension clinical trials: the Hypertension Detection and Follow-up Program (HDFP),^[5] the Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program (SHEP),^[6] the Antihypertensive and Lipid Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial (ALLHAT) ^[7]^[8] and the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT); ^[9] and in stem cell therapy trials for treating heart disease, the Cardiovascular Cell Therapy Research Network.

Recognition

Davis became a Fellow of the American Statistical Association in 1996, a Fellow of the Society for Clinical Trials in 2007, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2014 for "distinguished contributions to the methodology of clinical trials; the design, monitoring, management, and reporting of influential clinical trials; and leadership to advance public health",^[10] and an elected member of the International Statistical Institute in 2015.^[11] In 2004 he received the University of Texas Health President's Scholar's Award for his leadership role in the ALLHAT Clinical Trial.^[12] He is also a Fellow of the American Heart Association, the American Society of Hypertension, and the American College of Preventive Medicine.^[10]
