PHUSE Single Day Event in Frankfurt
On March 13th the next PHUSE Single Day Event in Frankfurt takes place. The theme is ‘Bridging Tradition andInnovation – Integrating the Best of the Old and New Worlds in Clinical Trial Development'.
Explore how traditional practices like SAS programming and CDISC standards mapping are integrating with open-sourcetools like R and Python to enhance clinical trials. Discover how AI and machine learning improve data mappingefficiency, statistical analysis and visualization, to drive more insightful trial outcomes. Register here for the event.
OCS Life Sciences will contribute with a presentation together with its partner Clinline:
Berber Snoeijer (ClinLine) and Javier Rodriguez Soto (OCS Life Sciences) will present the topic:
‘Bridging the Standards: Standardised Mapping and Lineage’
Data mapping in clinical research lacks a universal standard, often resulting in inefficiencies and inconsistencies. Thispresentation introduces an open-source tool that improves data lineage, FAIRness, and automation, streamlining themapping process for clinical trial and real-world data. Using real-world examples, we will demonstrate how this toolenhances transparency, automation, and reproducibility in clinical trial and real-world data mapping acrossmultiple transformation steps.
We hope to see many of you there! If you can’t make it to the event but are interested in this presentation, please get intouch with us.
