DIA Virtual Conference

The 17th Annual DIA/FDA Biostatistics Industry and Regulator Forum is a unique forum addressing the statistical issues associated with the development and review of therapeutic drugs, biologics, devices, and other medical products. As an open forum to discuss timely topics of mutual theoretical and practical interest to statisticians and clinical trial professionals, this meeting focuses on the regulatory and statistical challenges associated with innovative approaches to the design and analysis of clinical trials data and measuring the progress with the implementation of innovative solutions.

An important purpose of the forum is to advance the dialogue between industry, regulatory agencies, and academia around policy, regulation, development, and review of medical products in the context of today’s scientific and regulatory environments. The program is developed collaboratively by FDA, industry, and academic experts who team up to ensure that each session brings all stakeholder perspectives to the discussion.
