The San Francisco Bay Area Chapter of American Statistical Association (www.sfasa.org) and Cytel have a forum on how innovative statistical approaches are transforming drug, biologic and device development. This is an ideal opportunity to learn more about strategically employing adaptive designs to align with your clinical development goals. Gilead Sciences has kindly offered to host this seminar, but space is limited, so please register today by clicking the following register link.
Join us on the afternoon of February 26th to learn:
