Senior Biostatistician - Prenuvo

About Us

At Prenuvo, we are on a mission to flip the paradigm from reactive “sick-care” to proactive health care. Our award-winning whole body scan is fast (under 1 hour), safe (MRI has no ionizing radiation), and non-invasive (no contrast). Our unique integrated stack of optimized hardware, software, and increasingly AI, coupled with the patient-centric experience of our clinics across North America, have allowed us to lead the charge against “we caught it too late again.” Prenuvo operates preventative screening clinics in Vancouver, Silicon Valley, Dallas, Houston, Boca Raton, Seattle, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, San Diego, New York City, Buffalo, Bethesda, Chicago, and Atlanta, with more clinics in North America and internationally in the next 2 years.

We are looking for an energetic and diligent Senior Biostatistician to join our Vancouver team! Our ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of Healthcare and Technology, allowing them to take ownership of all aspects of health data management & analysis. If you are a skilled data lead with the ability to swiftly grasp technical concepts, generate scientifically rigorous reports, and have a strong background in biostatistics and medical data analysis, we encourage you to apply for this position!

This is an onsite role based in our Vancouver Headquarters located at 1290 Homer Street, Vancouver, British Columbia.

Help reshape the world through proactive healthcare while working with cutting-edge technology and high performing teams with deep expertise - join us to make a difference in people’s lives!

Study Design & Statistical Analysis

• Develop statistical analysis plans for MRI-based studies, ensuring scientific rigor and compliance with regulatory guidelines (FDA, EMA, ICH E9).
• Design and implement appropriate statistical models for longitudinal, cross-sectional, and case-control studies involving whole-body MRI data.
• Perform sample size calculations and power analyses specific to imaging-based endpoints.
• Conduct inferential statistical analyses (e.g., mixed-effects models, logistic regression, Cox proportional hazards models) to evaluate the association between imaging biomarkers and clinical outcomes.
• Evaluate the reliability, reproducibility, and clinical validity of imaging-derived metrics through methods such as intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC), Bland-Altman plots, and variance component analysis.
