Summary bios for applicants recommended for P.Stat. accreditation

LAROCQUE, Maxime #212

I am a statistician and data scientist with a focus on predictive modelling, especially within the context of insurance and financial services. Throughout my graduate studies and beyond, I have given much attention to the topic of feature selection, and consequently, developed a significant expertise with regards to genetic algorithms and their many offshoots and crossovers. Multiple years in the industry have also provided me with experience in machine learning (ML) engineering, that is, implementing end-to-end services, allowing for the proper consumption of data science machine learning (DSML) solutions.

MORGAN, Kevonn #213 (currently A.Stat. #141)

I am currently based in Toronto but grew up in Trinidad & Tobago. I work as a manager for RBC, and my background is focused on the financial services sector. For the last 4 years, I have held A.Stat. accreditation. I presented a talk titled, “Accreditation Mentoring from the Perspective of an A.Stat.” at the 2023 SSC Annual General Meeting.

ZAMZAM, Abdelrahman #214

I am Abdelrahman Zamzam, a seasoned biostatistician located in Toronto, Canada. My educational background includes a professional certificate in machine learning and artificial intelligence from UC Berkeley Executive Education, a MSc in epidemiology and biostatistics from the University of Leeds, and a BSc in pharmacy and biotechnology from the German University in Cairo. My role as a senior biostatistician at Unity Health Toronto has allowed me to delve deep into the intricacies of statistical analysis for complex research studies and clinical trials. I am well-versed in designing and implementing statistical methodologies, crafting data management plans, and conducting advanced statistical analyses using R, SAS, and Python. I take pride in my ability to communicate findings effectively through data visualization and in ensuring statistical rigour in grant proposals and research publications. Over the years, I have contributed to more than 40 research articles in reputable scientific journals, including notable publications in The Lancet. I am driven by a passion for advancing knowledge and have received recognition through several awards, such as the Leadership Award from Health 2.0, CRAFT/NRC Seed Grants, SVS Foundation Clinical Research Seed Grant, CSVS Young Investigator Award, and the People's Choice award for my work on artery alert. My commitment to healthcare analytics and scientific research is unwavering, making me an asset to the scientific community.

CHOW, Ronald #174

I studied epidemiology at Yale University, and medicine and biomedical engineering at the University of Toronto. I am trained as a research intern/fellow at Mass General Brigham, Harvard University, and New York Proton Center, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I am a fellow of the American College of Epidemiology, Royal Society for Public Health and Royal Statistical Society. I hold GStat accreditation from the ASA and CStat from the RSS.

TRENOU, Clement Kossi #175

Studying for a master's degree in biostatistics with a thesis at Université Laval, I hold a diploma in statistical engineering from the École nationale de la Statistique et de l'Analyse économique in Dakar-Senegal. I also hold the STAT ASSQ designation from the Association des statisticiens et statisticiennes du Québec, and my skills lie in statistical survey design, data collection application development, processing and analysis. Calm by nature, but fairly impulsive and rigorous in my work, I am driven by the spirit of a job well done. Very creative with ideas and brimming with imagination, I like to seize the slightest opportunity to share my know-how and skills with those around me. As a result, I have helped set up a number of development projects in my country, particularly in the fields of education, health, and the environment; this helped me a great deal in obtaining the Citizens of the World Commitment scholarship from Université Laval. My greatest challenge is to work for the development of all the world's societies in general, taking into account the challenges of climate change.
