The full bio

Three decades inside the data behind clinical trials

Adam brings a wealth of global experience gained from key biometrics leadership roles within major pharmaceutical companies and clinical research organisations. His deep industry knowledge — paired with a proven track record in real-world data, evidence generation and rare disease reporting — makes him the ideal partner for navigating today's complex data landscape.

He provides strategic consulting and hands-on support across complex project management, data integrity and compliance, strategic leadership, team development and data-driven problem solving. That work spans database design, data management, statistical programming, biostatistics and medical writing, across all phases of clinical trial, real-world evidence and rare disease.

Adam is also the host of the Pharma Prescribed Podcast, where he sits down with leaders across clinical research, digital health and data science for honest, long-form conversations about the people, data and decisions behind clinical trials. The podcast grew out of a simple conviction: every dataset represents a person, and the industry is better when the work is talked about openly.

Alongside consulting and podcasting, he speaks at conferences, chairs panels and runs training programmes covering biometrics upskilling, podcasting craft and on-camera presence for teams.
