“Pipelines, Processes, and Presentations: How to Manage a Collaborative Biostatistics Group," presented by Dr. Hanlon, highlighted key industry development skill sets, including essential skills for biostatistics groups, such as effective strategies for successful management, diversification of portfolios, defined scope, standardized analysis workflows, and the importance of peer review. This invited session focused on the role of the biostatistician in the era of data science.

The 2025 ENAR Spring Meeting theme was “ENAR is Interdisciplinary." This theme focused on the biological and quantitative sciences, and collaboration within the field to problem solve mathematical and statistical rigor solutions. Discourse of fostering an inclusive environment was discussed throughout the conference, in continued industry efforts to bring new perspectives to the profession.
