The New England Statistical Society (NESS), alongside the 2023 New England Rare
Disease Statistics (NERDS) Organizing Committee, is pleased to announce that we
will be hosting a fully in-person two-day workshop (Oct 12-13, 2023) at Hilton
Meadowlands, East Rutherford, NJ in New York Metropolitan Area.
This year’s workshop theme is: Accelerating Rare Disease Drug Development
through Novel Endpoint, RWE and Innovation. The workshop will consist of talks
