Accelerating Academic Clinical Research With SAS®

This webinar, part of our Analytics in 20 series, demonstrates how to translate the latest techniques in analytics and AI in health-related academic research to “real-world” settings to improve efficiency and innovation.

About the webinar

Health innovation happens in many settings, including academic research.

A significant barrier to realizing value from those innovations is translating models from academic research to real-world, clinical applications.

Increasingly, business value is demonstrated by showing knowledge-generating medicine with real-world data versus a traditional evidence-based focus.

This webinar will show you how to overcome those challenges with new technology and approaches.

These approaches deliver quantifiable outcomes and clinical effectiveness in health and life sciences.

We’ll also provide examples from leading organizations using a trusted analytics platform for more efficiency in research efforts, supporting collaboration across research communities.

You will learn:

  • How to work across the health analytics life cycle.
  • Ways to show business value by translating statistical performance into proven outcomes and change management.
  • Methods to augment clinical analytics with change management to increase performance.
  • Identification and application of responsible AI in clinical research settings.
  • Conversion of successful model intellectual property through existing commercial marketplaces.
