INTERN STORIES

My name is Luke Shawler, a Summer 2024 Biostatistics intern at PROMETRIKA. I am also currently pursuing an MS in Biostatistics from Harvard. During my summer at PROMETRIKA, I was supervised by our Associate Director, Biostatistics and Leader of DMC Services. In this role, I had the opportunity to work on a variety of enriching projects. In particular, I contributed to the preparation of data monitoring committee (DMC) reports. This role challenged me to develop my problem-solving skills and required the synthesis of feedback from both the study sponsor and the DMC. The position also pushed me to further develop my written and oral communication skills as I adhered to stringent deadlines.

My name is Sara O’Brien and I joined PROMETRIKA in Summer 2024 as a Biostatistics Intern. I am currently pursuing a Master of Science in Biostatistics at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. I previously received my BSPH in Biostatistics from UNC Chapel Hill (May 2023) and I will complete my master’s program in March 2025. During my internship, I reported directly to the Associate Director of Biostatistics and Leader of DMC Services and had the opportunity to directly collaborate with PROMETRIKA’s President & CEO, Senior Statistical Advisor, Associate Director of Biostatistics, Senior Regulatory Affairs Advisor, and many others across the Biostatistics Department and broader company.

PROMETRIKA fosters an environment of employee growth and development through hands-on learning. During my internship in Quality Assurance at PROMETRIKA, I was directly involved with the management of Standard Operating Procedures and employee training, reporting on quality metrics, system validation testing, and tracking workflows in our record management system. Working directly under the Head of Quality Assurance, I’ve gained valuable experience with the quality operations involved in supporting clinical trials.
