Senior Statistical Programmer, Product Development, Roche, UK (2008 – 2010)

I started programmer role when I joined Roche. My work was mainly on PHC (Personalized Healthcare). I worked closely with biomarker scientists, senior experimental statistician to perform biomarker analyses and intepret the results. I also collaborated with a member from Statistics Methods & Research Group on safety work. Examples of activities involving advanced expertise include:

  • Genomic biomarker analysis.
  • Multivariate and ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) analysis for biomarker.
  • Applied methods such as Propensity Scores, IPTW (Inverse Probability of Treatment Weighting), SSM (Sample Selection Models) and IVA (Instrumental Variable Analysis) to account for confounding in observational data
  • CART (Classification and Regression Tree) for safety data.
