Ann Yellowlees
I wanted to provide a personal approach where science, service, quality and technical excellence were at the heart.
Our Company Values
Quantics aims to provide the best possible service to clients so that the maximum information can be gained from laboratory experiments and clinical trials. Central to this are careful planning, efficient statistical analysis, clear and concise reporting and presentation of results aimed at non-statistical audiences, combined with the highest attention to Quality Control and Quality Assurance.
To achieve these aims, Quantics employs a rapidly expanding mix of highly experienced and qualified statistical, scientific and medical staff.
What it’s Like to Work with Quantics
“When I established Quantics in 2002 I felt that there was a need for a specialist statistical advisory and analysis service to help clients resolve complex challenges with their biological and clinical data. I wanted to provide a personal approach where science, service, quality and technical excellence were at the heart of everything I did. Several years on we have built a team of highly qualified statistical, scientific and medical experts who share my vision. I am delighted that we all maintain the same values today and our efforts have been recognised by clients who have been kind enough to share their Quantics experience” Ann Yellowlees
Our R&D
Quantics has a very active R&D department, exploring and developing new approaches to difficult analysis problems, with the aim of increasing the overall efficiency of the entire drug (or HTA) development process.
This often leads to reduced costs for clients. Efficient analysis and simulation can reduce overall drug development time by avoiding unnecessary experimental work, and reduced materials consumption.
We regularly publish in high profile peer reviewed journals and present at meetings, and when discussed with regulators, these methodological improvements have always been accepted.
