Robert Howard
My name is Robert Howard; I am an Advanced SAS Certified programmer and statistical data analyst with extensive experience working on clinical trials. After about 6 years as a statistical programmer analyst in the pharmaceutical industry, I formed Veridical Solutions, Inc. in 2007. While I appreciate the corporate environment and often work in my clients’ offices, I find that I also enjoy meeting and working with new people as well as the autonomy associated with consultancy.
In my previous employment and as the primary data analyst for Veridical Solutions, I have analyzed data for Phase I through Phase IV clinical trials in a wide range of . I am skilled in all stages of the data analysis process – including definition of analysis methods and algorithms, production and validation of complex derived datasets, and generation of tables, listings and figures for Clinical Study Reports. I also have experience creating and working with CDISC compliant databases.
In 2015, I began serving on the Executive Committee of PharmaSUG, a Software Users Group of life science and health research professionals focused on the application of technological solutions in data analytics and regulatory support. PharmaSUG holds an annual three-day conference in the US each year and I co-chaired the event in 2017 in Baltimore, serving as the Academic Chair. In 2018, I co-chaired PharmaSUG’s first one-day conference in Tokyo, Japan.
