Philadelphia brings together data science, statistical programming, and IT leaders from top life sciences organizations to share real-world experiences and lessons learned.
Expect direct conversations on modernizing statistical computing, scaling AI in regulated environments, and turning data science investments into measurable scientific impact.


Drawing on his tenure as FDA Commissioner and his current work leading Nucleus RadioPharma, Dr. Hahn will share his perspective on how AI is reshaping drug development across clinical trials and regulatory submissions, and what sponsors need to understand as they incorporate AI into regulated workflows.
GSK's STAR program tackled open source adoption with an unconventional approach: a team of R experts who said yes to every inquiry. This session traces the journey from legacy constraints to measurable progress, including the governance, training, and support structures that made the shift stick.
Modernizing a statistical computing environment requires more than a technology upgrade. UCB shares its approach to evolving a legacy SCE within a regulated context, including what it took to pack up technical debt, contain scope, and put the right foundations in place across people, process, and IT.
At BMS, data science and AI are embedded end-to-end, from early discovery to clinical development and commercialization. Learn how Domino enables teams to move from Python notebooks to production AI, scaling collaboration and impact across the enterprise.
A top 10 pharma shares how it's moving from manual, fragmented clinical analytics to a unified statistical computing environment on Domino, reducing human error, maintaining auditability across SAS, R, and Python, and supporting regulated, day-to-day statistical programming.
See how RWE teams can move from cohort design to stakeholder-ready insights in Domino with AI-assisted study builds, immutable versioning, and self-service data exploration for medical affairs and payer teams.
In this joint session, Domino and Posit will show how Positron integrates with Domino's governed environment, covering the full code lifecycle for both R and Python, package management with Posit Package Manager, and how Positron's native AI tools augment statistical programmers and data scientists in the ways they already work.
Modernizing a statistical computing environment requires navigating roadmap decisions to fit new capabilities into a complex clinical ecosystem. Priya Subramaniam will share practical lessons from Novartis’ SCE journey on extending platforms to meet organization’s needs, scaling adoption, and addressing validation and QC - delivering speed and flexibility without compromising regulatory rigor.
Few executives have a clearer view of where pharma data science is heading than Eric Gibson of Novartis. In this closing fireside chat, he shares a candid perspective on the FDA's shift toward R-based submissions, multimodal research, and why synthetic data may be the key to unlocking AI at scale.
