1st Annual PaSiPHIC (Pacific Coast Statisticians and Pharmacometricians 
Innovation Conference) -- Narrowing the distribution between stochastic 
scientists by bringing Statisticians and Pharmacometricians together 

Event Dates: Monday June 14 - Wednesday June 16 
City: San Luis Obispo State: California Country: USA 

We will soon have a registration page and web page available, but we wanted to 
give you an idea of our progress. 

The program is in planning. Participants will be able to choose to attend 2 of 
4 brief tutorials (each 3 hours in length.) Details of the courses are not 
finalized, but we hope to announce soon. In addition, there will be eight (1 ½ 
hour) sessions planned. Some of these we expect will be of extra interest to 
statisticians, some we expect will be of extra interest to pharmacometricians, 
and the rest we anticipate will be of interest to both. The names of the 8 
sessions follow. 

Benefits from Pharmacometrics, Drug Safety and Pharmacometrics, Inference from 
Multiple Data Sources, Handling Incomplete Information, Impact of Emerging 
Technologies on PK-PD, Case Studies: Pharmacometricians and Statisticians 
Working in Partnership, Increasing Flexibility in Model Building, and Career 
Development for Pharmacometricians and Statisticians 

Although we have begun to line up speakers, not all of the slots are filled. If 
you have an interest in speaking on one of these topics, let us know. We might 
be able to use you. 

Also, as a reminder, the joint keynote speakers are Joga Gobburu (Director of 
Pharmacometrics at the Food and Drug Administration) and Stephen Senn 
(Professor at the University of Glasgow Department of Statistics). The meeting 
will be held on the campus of Cal Poly and is sponsored by the Department of 
Statistics. 

Registrants will receive 3 continental breakfasts, 3 lunches, and 1 dinner. The 
registration fee will be $399. Registration will continue through May 1st at 
which point an additional fee will be added. 

Organizing Committee: Andrew Chow, Brenda Cirincione, Charles DuMond, Ying Lu,
