For example, automated table and figure generation in clinical trial reports and continuous monitoring of wearable sensors for early detection of clinical signals. Yet the effectiveness and trustworthiness of these systems depend critically on statistical principles such as study design, uncertainty quantification, validation, and causal reasoning.The 2026 Joint Annual American Statistical Association (ASA) New Jersey/Princeton-Trenton Chapters Spring Symposium brings together experts from industry, academia, and regulatory organizations to examine how AI/ML and statistics jointly inform decisions, moving from model development to making real-world impact. Presentations will explore methodological advances and real-world applications of AI/ML and statistics across healthcare, clinical development, and biomedical research.The symposium emphasizes the continuing role of statistical judgment in guiding responsible AI innovation and supporting transparent, interpretable, and reliable decision making in modern applied data environments.We welcome posters on the topic of patient reported outcomes or other topics in biopharmaceutical statistics. If interested in presenting a poster, please send the title to sanhita.sengupta@bms.com by Thursday, June 18.For general questions about the symposium, contact the Symposium Organizing Committee Chair, CV Damaraju: cdamara1@its.jnj.com or Stephanie Pugh (American College of Radiology): spugh@acr.orgFor registration questions contact Dirk Moore: dirk.moore@rutgers.eduVenue (note that there is no option for remote attendance):Rutgers Medical School Kessler Teaching Labs, Main Auditorium675 Hoes Lane West, Piscataway, NJ 08854Advance registration closes on Monday, June 22 at 11:30 AM.
