Number of opportunities for biostatisticians in the pharmaceutical industry is growing and more rapidly in the CRO business. While it is challenging to hire and retain the right talent, it is more interesting problem to achieve a successful partnership. The sponsor may have zero biometric team/experience to all the way to a large and sophisticated team; their need may range from providing support to routine and repetitive work to consulting on complex problems. It is critical to understand the sponsor’s need and then strive for the best result. Building a collaborative environment is key to a successful partnership that relies on three pillars: communication, quality and timeline. At this roundtable, we will discuss case studies and share experiences of successful (and not so successful) partnerships between the CRO and the sponsor biostatisticians.
