Staburo @ workshop from IBS-DR working group “Non-Clinical Statistics”

Staburo recently took part at the workshop of the IBS-DR (Internationale Biometrische Gesellschaft – Deutsche Region) working group “Non-Clinical Statistics”. The workshop was held as hybrid event: Online and at the same time in Ingelheim on 24 and 25 November 2022. It covered many exciting topics in the field of non-clinical statistics like toxicology, design of experiments, process, and stability monitoring.

A recurrent scheme has been that presenters provided insights on challenges for statisticians both in their working environment and on a professional level. State-of the art solutions to address questions that arise from the non-clinical research field were discussed and related against the background of common practises, guidelines, and regulations.

Many thanks to the organisers for this exciting workshop. It was a great opportunity to learn and exchange. We are already looking forward to the next workshop in that group!

Staburo also has a strong focus on non-clinical statistics. We interact with regulatory authorities, and we know and work according to their guidelines on a daily basis. Companies that want to progress non-clinical projects, and medical device companies within an increasingly regulated environment, can benefit from our experience, such as:

• Statistical and analysis planning for medical device trials
• Design of Experiments statistical input and recommendations
• Stability testing
• Dissolution testing
• JoS
• FDS
• Interaction with authorities (e.g. FDA, EMA) focusing on statistical design or data analyses

Movie Night @ Staburo

On a Friday night, 18 Staburo team members, 6 big pizzas, popcorn, a bunch of other snacks, soft drinks, and beer. What could this mean? It was about time for our Staburo team movie night.

Finally, the time had come – some of our colleagues have been waiting for years for this event to happen. Originally it was planned in Friday, 13 (!) March 2020. What happened next is still known to us all.

Ironically, the movie “Twelve Monkeys” had already been selected to be shown that evening in early 2020. The movie “Twelve Monkeys” is an American science fiction film, already published in the year 1995 and tells the story about a prisoner who goes back in time to avert a deadly plague.

For this evening, our big meeting room was equipped with all comfortable armchairs and sofas we could find in our office. Around 6pm the group started with food, drinks and even a small presentation from one of our team members. He prepared an entertaining presentation about the main characters of the movie.

Thanks to the organiser for the amazing movie night and the great catering.

Solidarity and fun are not only part our core values, also something that is lived at Staburo and our team enjoys it very much. Thus, quite a few other team events – organised internally by team members, for example a running dinner night or climbing & skiing activities – already happened or are in the making.

We are looking forward to the next team activities!
