- Spot gaps in the evidence, help shape validation studies, and choose biomarkers and measures that track response.
- Prepare well-supported written reports and make the case for recommendations to treating doctors, researchers and advocacy groups.
- Offer engineering and science teams precise feedback that strengthens the scientific reasoning and practical value of their models.
