OverviewDirect message the job poster from Opus Recruitment SolutionsI'm currently supporting a company that has adopted OMOP/OHDSI as a systematic and standardized approach to real-world evidence (RWE). Data are converted into the OMOP Common Data Model, making queries and analytics interoperable and sharable. In addition, the generation of these queries and tools and its execution can be separated, both physically as well as logically, creating the opportunity to develop code for purposes of descriptive statistics or hypothesis testing in the absence of a direct data access to all data assets being targeted. As a consequence, our team can generate insights across multiple datasets in our collaborators network.The Data Standardization & Analytics team's mission is to deliver world class and globally scalable projects through:
Rapid analytics - to assess study feasibility and availability of data Characterization of patient populations: their demographics, the distribution of their comorbidities, the duration between diagnosis and intervention, treatment patterns etc. Protocol-driven analytics - estimating the association between clinical interventions and their outcomes – benefits and adverse events. Predictive models for determination of populations (phenotypes) or outcomes (patient-level predictions). Network studies – co-ordinating the execution of RWE analytics across multiple external data partner sites. This requires global leadership across technical and data architecture, data manipulation, analytics script and report generation. The solutions are delivered to a variety of clients across life-science, government, payer or provider organizations.
