  • Perspectives on 'Communicating Evidence About Medicines'
    Perspectives on 'Communicating evidence about medicines' A report of a one-day workshop held by the Academy of Medical Sciences on 6 June 2016 Disclaimer This report does not represent a formal Academy of Medical Sciences position on how best to communicate evidence about medicines. Rather this document reflects the wide-ranging discussions that took place at the workshop. The report of this meeting will feed into the Academy’s workstream on ‘How can we all best use evidence to judge the potential benefits and harms of medicines?'.1 We hope that this report will also encourage wider discussion about communicating evidence about medicines. We would therefore welcome feedback on the report. For further information, please contact Dr Rachel Brown, Policy Officer at the Academy of Medical Sciences ([email protected], 020 3141 3223). We are most grateful to Professor Theresa Marteau FMedSci for Chairing this workshop and to Professor Sir David Spiegelhalter OBE FRS for his helpful contributions in the development of this workshop. We are also especially thankful to Dr Paul Robinson, Dr Jacintha Sivarajah, and Dr Catherine Harvey for their contributions to the workshop which were given at short notice, and to all other individuals who contributed to the event. All web references were accessed in June/July 2016. This work is © Academy of Medical Sciences and is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International. 1. Led by Professor Sir John Tooke FMedSci, the workstream also includes workshops on evaluating evidence in health, conflicts of interest, and communicating evidence about medicines in the media.

It catalogues the many biases twisting how research is used by policymakers. It also addresses a vital challenge in our sector – a lack of legitimacy. As well as the academic rigour of this book, there are practical tips on what we can do about these problems, and lessons from across the globe showing where we get it wrong – and how we might get it right.’ – Jonathan Breckon, Head of the Alliance for Useful Evidence, UK ‘This important book goes well beyond standard analyses of evidence informed policy with detailed discussions of the politics of evidence and the political origins (and the cognitive psychology) of bias in the use of research evidence.

  • Alumni Event: Meeting Minds Global 12-17 April 2021
    ALUMNI E-NEWSLETTER CONTENT: FEBRUARY 2021 We trust you and your families have kept well over this unprecedented year for us all. Following Government advice, our St Giles’ Building was closed from 24th March 2020 and duly remained closed until late August. Staff and students had to quickly adapt to remote working during this period and remarkably Department life was able to continue, albeit remotely. A small number of staff and students returned to working in the building at the end of August with the majority still working from home. In preparation for the start of Michaelmas Term, a system was set up that allowed every member of the Department to come in for half the week. Unfortunately, further disruption came in November, with the partial lockdown, and again after the Christmas break. Hilary Term has been extremely quiet, with only a small number of staff and students working in the building. ALUMNI EVENT: MEETING MINDS GLOBAL 12-17 APRIL 2021 For 2021 the Alumni Office are creating the opportunity for alumni around the world to come together and experience an array of exciting and innovative talks, and connect with each other. Content will be streamed live across three time zones, from London (BST), Hong Kong (HKT) and New York (EDT) with speakers sharing their experiences and expertise across a diverse range of topics. The Department of Statistics will have a virtual ‘Booth’ at Meeting Minds Global which you can visit at any time throughout the week as well as specific events for you to join.

  • Pigeonholes and Mustard Seeds: Growing Capacity to Use Data for Society
    J. R. Statist. Soc. A (2019) Pigeonholes and mustard seeds: growing capacity to use data for society Deborah Ashby Imperial College London, UK [The address of the President delivered to The Royal Statistical Society on Wednesday, June 26th, 2019] Summary. The Royal Statistical Society was founded to address social problems ‘through the collection and classification of facts’, leading to many developments in the collection of data, the development of methods for analysing them and the development of statistics as a profession. Nearly 200 years later an explosion in computational power has led, in turn, to an explosion in data. We outline the challenges and the actions needed to exploit that data for the public good, and to address the step change in statistical skills and capacity development necessary to enable our vision of a world where data are at the heart of understanding and decision making. Keywords: Communication; Design principles; Statistical capacity building; Statistical skills; Team science 1. Origins In the 1830s, interested groups of people were meeting regularly to discuss statistics, and in 1834 the Statistical Society of London was founded (Rosenbaum, 1984). In 1887, this became the Royal Statistical Society and the Royal Charter (Queen Victoria, 1887) set out ‘Whereas Our Right trusty and entirely beloved cousin, Henry, Third Marquess of Lansdowne, [:::], Charles Babbage [:::and others :::] did, in the year of One thousand eight hundred and thirty-four, establish a Society to collect, arrange, digest and publish facts, illustrating the condition and prospects of society in its material, social, and moral relations; these facts being for the most part arranged in tabular forms and in accordance with the principles of the numerical method, and the same Society is now called or known by the name of “The Statistical Society”.
