Brian Varney & David Bosak recently presented a single day event on behalf of PHUSE, showcasing ChatGPT for code conversion (e.g. SAS to R) and gave a shout out to the CAMIS project. In general, AI has shown to performed well on DM / manipulation processes, but needed human input for stats methods (which really highlights the need for the CAMIS project). 

Mariusz Zieba is organizing a AZ R conference 2nd week march and will invite CAMIS leadership team to speak. Will follow up with more information in the new year. 

Next Meeting

At our first meeting in 2026, on the 12th January at 4:30 GMT, 5:30 CET, 11:30 EST, we will have a feedback session where we evaluate what is working well, what not so well, what you would like us to change, and will identify our key priorities for CAMIS in 2026.  If you have any ideas, please come along and share them with us. If you aren’t able to attend, you are welcome to email any ideas you have for 2026 to Lyn prior to the meeting (lyn.taylor@parexel.com).

The CAMIS leadership team would like to wish you a very happy festive season and look forward to working with you in 2026.
