About Us Data Driven Pharma is an SF Bay Area based community for people in drug development who are interested in how data is being used in our industry. Our focus is on sharing stories from the field where data driven projects and/or infrastructure have led to impact in the companies where these stories come from. Given our business-oriented beginning, we are also particularly interested in exploring the ROI of these projects. Who is this event for? Anyone interested in data management systems and their use cases in drug development. People with a focus on Machine Learning, Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, IT, and other computational fields tend to attend our events. Outside of this, anyone interest is also welcome. How can I help? Reach out if you have a cool story to share and you enjoy talking about your work, you can provide space for our next event, or you're interested in sponsoring at event.
