Ron Wasserstein, executive director of the American Statistical Association, reports in from Bethesda, Maryland, at the 2025 Biopharmaceutical Regulatory-Industry Statistics Workshop, where more than 1,200 statisticians from industry, academia, and regulatory agencies have gathered for the premier event in the biopharmaceutical arena.
He shines a light on the robust programming and the opening session, which set the tone for the workshop as Mark Levenson (FDA), Margaret Gamalo (Pfizer), and Xiao-Li Meng (Harvard University) tackled the evolving roles of statisticians in the AI/ML era.
Ron notes the extraordinary growth of RISW—so much so that the ASA is considering larger venues. He also emphasizes the collaborative energy driving the event, thanking sponsors such as Cytel that make this gathering possible.
Watch Ron as he gives his onsite perspective of the leading forum for statisticians shaping the future of biopharmaceutical statistics. #RISW2025 #Biopharmaceuticals #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #MachineLearning #Statistics
