Andy Grieve, Gemma Hodgson, Margaret Jones (& external speaker tbc)
The landscape is changing across the pharma industry and as statisticians, in order to continually add value, we must make sure we adapt. This course will focus on what this means for statisticians outside the technical aspects of their role. Of critical importance is self-awareness during our interactions, working effectively in teams, influencing, being customer focussed and understanding our own consulting and leadership styles.
Now more than ever we need to be creative and influential thinkers with business acumen who can work with our colleagues from other disciplines, not just be technical experts - we need to be proactive partners with strong communication skills.
This course will lead participants, in a non-threatening and encouraging atmosphere, through the process of understanding their own strengths and weaknesses and what this means when working as a strategic partner or as part of a larger team. It will include workshops to practice the skills and behaviours discussed.
This course is aimed at statisticians who want to improve their consultancy style interactions within their internal project teams and/or with external customers and understand the impact of their own behaviours and interaction preferences.
The following topics will be covered:
Myer-Briggs profiling and interactions preferences
Effective Team working
What does it mean to be a consultant?
Questioning styles
Effective Communication Skills
Owning your own development
Course runs from: 10:00 - 17:00 (registration from 09:30)

Upcoming Events
Joint PSI/EFSPI Visualisation SIG 'Wonderful Wednesday' Webinars
Our monthly webinar explores examples of innovative data visualisations relevant to our day to day work. Each month a new dataset is provided from a clinical trial or other relevant example, and participants are invited to submit a graphic that communicates interesting and relevant characteristics of the data.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
PSI Introduction to Industry Training (ITIT) Course - 2024/2025
An introductory course giving an overview of the pharmaceutical industry and the drug development process as a whole, aimed at those with 1-3 years' experience. It comprises of six 2-day sessions covering a range of topics including Research and Development, Toxicology, Data Management and the Role of a CRO, Clinical Trials, Reimbursement, and Marketing.
PSI Training Course: Regulatory Guidelines for Statisticians
This 2-day course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory guidelines affecting statisticians in the pharmaceutical industry, including the latest updates in the field. The course will cover key International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines and other key regional regulatory agency documents.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Pre-Clinical SIG Webinar: Efficient R&D: SVEM and Advanced DOE in Preclinical Toxicity Testing
This 1-hour webinar will be an opportunity to hear how JMP have been influential in the toxicity testing of an oncology formulation in a pre-clinical setting. At the end of the presentation there will also be the opportunity to ask questions.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Small Populations & RWD SIG Webinar: Harnessing Real-World Data (RWD) in clinical trials for small populations and rare diseases
In this webinar we will review the range of statistical methodologies used to harness the potential of Real-World Data (RWD) in clinical development, particularly in the context of rare diseases and small populations like paediatrics. The session will include theoretical understanding and practical case studies, with a special focus on Bayesian methods and causal inference.
In this event, we’ll start with a general introduction to hierarchical composite endpoints and an overview of common analysis methods including win ratio, win odds, and net benefit. Then, the practical considerations will be illustrated through case studies from clinical trials in heart failure and chronic kidney disease. We conclude with a discussion and a Q&A.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Pre-Clinical SIG Webinar: Virtual Control Groups in Toxicity Studies
Lea Vaas will present how replacement of concurrent control animals by Virtual Control Groups (VCGs) in systemic toxicity studies may help in contributing to the 3R's principle of animal experimentation: Reduce, Refine, Replace.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
