Associate Director, Safety & Epidemiology
Daniel C. Beachler, PhD, MHS, leads pharmacoepidemiology research studies supporting medical product safety in both chronic and infectious disease areas. He has experience conducting validation studies and utilizing predictive modeling and machine learning methods in order to develop claims-based algorithms to improve cohort and outcome classification. He has also been involved with post-authorization safety studies (PASS), Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS), and post-market requirement (PMR) studies.
Prior to joining HealthCore, Dr. Beachler was a Cancer Prevention Fellow at the National Cancer Institute, Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics. Dr. Beachler has published dozens of manuscripts in the peer-reviewed medical literature. He has presented his work at scientific meetings and to regulatory authorities worldwide.
Real-world evidence can usefully support precision medicine and faster regulatory approvals. The use of statistical methods to develop better case-identifying algorithms enables use of claims databases to study rare diseases and other targeted indications as well as more valid outcome ascertainment for safety and effectiveness research.
