I first became aware of these sources for real-world evidence some years ago, and I tried to get an expert on this topic so often, but unfortunately, no one would speak with me. Then finally someone agreed when they found out what country my research was being conducted in-the Scandinavian Union! You might be wondering why we need data from such a unique place as Scandinavia? Stay tuned because you’ll find out soon enough… This region provides us statisticians everything we could hope: perfect measurements plus high-quality counts.
We discuss the following points:
- What brought Anders into RWE
- What makes Nordic countries special when it comes to health system?
- What are some key success factors of the Nordic health system?
- What kind of population registers are there?
- and more…

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.
