Overview
The deployment of biomarkers in drug development and diagnostics has many challenges ranging from analytical validation, in vivo study design, to the translation to human utility and financial considerations. In this Webinar focus will be given to safety biomarkers. Statistical issues in data science that nonclinical statisticians might encounter along the way will be discussed.
Speakers
Speaker: Graham Healey
Biography: Graham has 40 years experience in supporting R&D in the pharmaceutical and diagnostics industries, particularly in the areas of discovery, toxicology, assay validation and clinical trials. After graduating in Zoology from Imperial College, he then converted to full-time statistics via the MSc Biometry course at Reading. After a year lecturing at Bunda Agricultural College deep in the Malawian bush, he joined the biotech division of G.D.Searle UK, working on interferon and aspartame. Next came six years at Searle's R&D site in Belgium followed by 16 years as Head of Statistics at HLS in UK, working in a vast array of preclinical, toxicology and clinical areas. He is currently Chief Statistician at Oncimmune Ltd, involved in all stages of the commercialisation of blood tests for the early detection of cancer, from laboratory bench to doctor’s surgery. In his spare time his main passions are classical music and insects.
Speaker: Dea Putri
Biography: Right after graduating from her master study in biostatistics at Hasselt University, Belgium, Dea directly joined the discovery statistics at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 2015 as biostatistician. In this role, Dea closely collaborates with other statisticians as well as scientist from different therapeutic area to provide solutions from day to day business needs to a more specific cases which need tailor-made analysis. Dea is building her expertise in high dimensional data integration on pre-clinical as well as clinical studies. At the moment, Dea is also finishing her doctoral school at Hasselt University under supervision of Prof. Ziv Shkedy and Prof. Luc Bijnens with research topic related to statistical method development for the design and statistical analysis of high dimensional data integration.

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.
Topic: R Package Basics.
Our monthly webinar series allows attendees to gain practical knowledge and skills in open-source coding and tools, with a focus on applications in the pharmaceutical industry. This month’s session, “R Package Basics,” will introduce the fundamentals of working with R packages—covering how to install, load, and manage them effectively to support data analysis and reproducible research. The session will provide a solid starting point, clarify common misconceptions, and offer valuable resources for continued learning.
Date: Ongoing 6 month cycle beginning late April/early May 2026
Are you a member of PSI looking to further your career or help develop others - why not sign up to the PSI Mentoring scheme? You can expand your network, improve your leadership skills and learn from more senior colleagues in the industry.
PSI Book Club Lunch and Learn: Communicating with Clarity and Confidence
If you have read Ros Atkins’ book The Art of Explanation or want to listen to the BBC’s ‘Communicator in Chief’, you are invited to join the PSI Book Club Lunch and Learn, to discuss the content and application with the author, Ros Atkins. Having written the book within the context of the news industry, Ros is keen to hear how we have applied the ideas as statisticians within drug development and clinical trials. There will be dedicated time during the webinar to ASK THE AUTHOR any questions – don’t miss out on this exclusive PSI Book Club event!
Haven’t read the book yet? Pick up a copy today and join us.
Explanation - identifying and communicating what we want to say - is described as an art, in the title of his book. However, the creativity comes from Ros’ discernment in identifying and describing a clear step-by-step process to follow and practice. Readers can learn Ros’ rules, developed and polished throughout his career as a journalist, to help communicate complex written or spoken information clearly.
PSI Training Course: Effective Leadership – the keys to growing your leadership capabilities
This course will consist of three online half-day workshops. The first will be aimed at building trust, the backbone of leadership and a key to becoming effective. This is key to building a solid foundation.
The second will be on improving communication as a technical leader. This workshop will focus on communication strategies for different stakeholders and will involve tips on effective communication and how to develop the skills of active listening, coaching and what improv can teach us about good communication.
The final workshop will bring these two components together to help leaders become more influential. This will also focus on how to use Steven Covey’s 7-Habits, in particular Habits 4, 5 and 6, which are called the habits of communication.
The workshops will be interactive, allowing you to practice the concepts discussed. There will be plenty of time for questions and discussion. There will also be reflective time where you can think about what you are learning and how you might experiment with it.
