Abstract:
Individuals with training in various academic disciplines including
pharmacokinetics, pharmacology, engineering and statistics, to name a few, have
pursued careers as pharmacometricians. While pharmacometrics has benefitted
greatly from advances in statistical methodology, there is considerable tension
and skepticism between biostatisticians and pharmacometricians as they apply
their expertise to drug development applications. This talk explores some of
the root causes for this tension and provides some suggestions for improving
collaborations between statisticians and pharmacometricians. The talk concludes
with a plea for more statisticians to consider careers as pharmacometrics
practitioners.
