Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly integrated into the development and regulation of medicinal products, offering new opportunities in drug discovery, clinical trials, and manufacturing. AI-driven approaches, particularly machine learning and bioinformatics, facilitate target identification, optimize patient selection in clinical trials, and enhance process control in pharmaceutical manufacturing. In the context of biomedicine, AI plays a critical role in predicting drug-target interactions, modeling peptide-MHC binding for immunotherapy, and improving the precision of CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing.
Despite its potential, AI applications in medicinal products present challenges, including data quality, algorithm validation, and regulatory compliance. The necessity for robust performance metrics and risk assessment frameworks is paramount to ensure the reliability and safety of AI-driven methodologies.

Who is this event intended for? Statisticians with an interest understanding dose-finding in oncology.
What is the benefit of attending? Learn about the state of oncology dose finding, particularly in light of current FDA guidance.
PSI Book Club Webinar: Atomic Habits - The Science of Getting Your Act Together
The book club’s usual focus is to read and discuss professional development books. In this short format event you can more easily develop you career without the commitment of reading the whole book - simply listen to the 1-hour long podcast before joining the interactive session on 21 May.
PSI Webinar: Methods and tools integrating clinical trial evidence with historical or real-world data, Bayesian borrowing, and causal inference
This webinar is organised by the RWD SIG and the Historical Data SIG. We will review recent methods, applications, and tools of integrating subject-level-data from clinical trial with external data using Bayesian methods and/or causal inference methods.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
This course is aimed at biostatisticians with no or some pediatric drug development experience who are interested to further their understanding. We will give you an introduction to the pediatric drug development landscape. This will include identifying the key regulations and processes governing pediatric development, a discussion on the needs and challenges when conducting pediatric research and a focus on the ways to overcome these challenges from a statistical perspective.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
