The RSS International Conference in (mostly) sunny Bournemouth was packed with discussions, research and inspiring talks from across the statistical community. But thanks to our generous sponsors, this year also played host to an array of new and retuning highlights beyond the main programme.
We’d like to acknowledge the organisations whose support helped make some of these parts of the conference possible.
A huge thank you to our co-headline supporters, SAIL Databank and MSD, for their continued support.
MSD has been a long-standing supporter of the RSS Conference App and this year spoke about building trustworthy, decision-ready evidence for Health Technology Assessment.
Meanwhile, SAIL Databank, a world-leading Trusted Research Environment, was a popular presence in the exhibition hall, where their team came prepared with some particularly snazzy sunglasses for visitors to their stand.
