Hopefully, you’re attending statistical conferences to learn more about the latest developments in the field. But of course, there’s much more to conferences than just the sessions.
In this episode, I’m chatting with Kate Taylor – the chair of the PSI conference 2019 in London- about how to get the most out of a conference. Of course, we take the upcoming PSI conference as an example.
In this episode, we talk about
- how to network
- how to prepare for the conference
- how to follow up after the conference
as well as some specific topics around the PSI conference itself.

Join The Effective Statistician LinkedIn group
This group was set up to help each other to become more effective statisticians. We’ll run challenges in this group, e.g. around writing abstracts for conferences or other projects. I’ll also post into this group further content.
I want to help the community of statisticians, data scientists, programmers and other quantitative scientists to be more influential, innovative, and effective. I believe that as a community we can help our research, our regulatory and payer systems, and ultimately physicians and patients take better decisions based on better evidence.
I work to achieve a future in which everyone can access the right evidence in the right format at the right time to make sound decisions.
When my kids are sick, I want to have good evidence to discuss with the physician about the different therapy choices.
When my mother is sick, I want her to understand the evidence and being able to understand it.
When I get sick, I want to find evidence that I can trust and that helps me to have meaningful discussions with my healthcare professionals.
I want to live in a world, where the media reports correctly about medical evidence and in which society distinguishes between fake evidence and real evidence.
Let’s work together to achieve this.
