Expert in Biostatistics & Clinical Programming.

Freelance Senior Biostatistician | Remote & Hybrid Capacity for Full-Cycle Study Support | Immediate availability for SAP, Analysis & QC.

With over 25 years of experience in clinical trials (Phase I–IV) and epidemiological studies, I provide independent, high-quality statistical services for biotech, pharma, and research institutions. I combine deep methodological expertise with modern workflows to ensure rapid, accurate deliverables.

Core Services

Statistical Production & Data Analysis

  • Developing individual protocols and detailed Statistical Analysis Plans (SAPs)
  • Determining and implementing appropriate statistical methodology for clinical trial data
  • Collaborating efficiently with data management and programming teams to specify, produce, and validate Tables, Listings, and Figures (TLFs)

  • Focus: Dedicated hands-on execution minimizing non-essential administrative meetings

Medical Experience & Methodology

I have undertaken a variety of projects utilizing methodologies such as pattern recognition (LDA, LASSO), Logistic regression, PCA, and Monte Carlo simulations. My work spans numerous medical fields, ensuring broad and deep domain knowledge.

Primary Medical Areas:

Oncology Cardiology Allergy CNS & Neurology Gastroenterology Rheumatology Endocrinology Medical Devices

* While my recent portfolio heavily features oncology, cardiology, vaccines, and medical devices, my methodological expertise is fully transferable across all therapeutic areas.
