PaSiPHIC Update - Get Ready to Register

From: Brenda Cirincione Date: February 18, 2010 technical
1st Annual PaSiPHIC (Pacific Coast Statisticians and Pharmacometricians Innovation Conference) -- Narrowing the distribution between stochastic scientists by bringing Statisticians and Pharmacometricians together Event Dates: Monday June 14 - Wednesday June 16 City: San Luis Obispo State: California Country: USA We will soon have a registration page and web page available, but we wanted to give you an idea of our progress. The program is in planning. Participants will be able to choose to attend 2 of 4 brief tutorials (each 3 hours in length.) Details of the courses are not finalized, but we hope to announce soon. In addition, there will be eight (1 ½ hour) sessions planned. Some of these we expect will be of extra interest to statisticians, some we expect will be of extra interest to pharmacometricians, and the rest we anticipate will be of interest to both. The names of the 8 sessions follow. Benefits from Pharmacometrics, Drug Safety and Pharmacometrics, Inference from Multiple Data Sources, Handling Incomplete Information, Impact of Emerging Technologies on PK-PD, Case Studies: Pharmacometricians and Statisticians Working in Partnership, Increasing Flexibility in Model Building, and Career Development for Pharmacometricians and Statisticians Although we have begun to line up speakers, not all of the slots are filled. If you have an interest in speaking on one of these topics, let us know. We might be able to use you. Also, as a reminder, the joint keynote speakers are Joga Gobburu (Director of Pharmacometrics at the Food and Drug Administration) and Stephen Senn (Professor at the University of Glasgow Department of Statistics). The meeting will be held on the campus of Cal Poly and is sponsored by the Department of Statistics. Registrants will receive 3 continental breakfasts, 3 lunches, and 1 dinner. The registration fee will be $399. Registration will continue through May 1st at which point an additional fee will be added. Organizing Committee: Andrew Chow, Brenda Cirincione, Charles DuMond, Ying Lu, Carl Peck, Mark Peterson, Bob Smidt, Brian Smith, Chi-Hse Teng, Paolo Vicini, and Ouhong Wang Contact Brian Smith for more details Phone: 805 447-1378 Email: [email protected]
