We are an independent consultancy in Vancouver, British Columbia, specializing in patient-centered research, epidemiology, evidence synthesis, and health economics. Our team comprises epidemiologists, health economists, statisticians, qualitative researchers, and IT specialists. Our projects are led by senior team members with extensive experience across a wide range of HEOR studies. We have an extensive network of external academic and clinical experts who collaborate on studies that lie within their core areas of expertise.
We are looking to hire an experienced statistician to join our team and contribute to a variety of research projects.
