ISPE 2026 · Milan · Booth 300

# Bring your toughest evidence question to Booth 300 at ISPE.

Whether you're looking for comparative effectiveness, causal inference, or healthcare utilization and expenditure research, tell us what you're working on and we'll bring the right scientists to the table.

## Get matched with a scientist who can answer your specific questions.

*Why it's worth it*

Whether you're weighing study designs, pressure-testing an approach, going deep on a therapeutic area, or exploring how a standing cohort could fit your evidence plan, a short meeting puts you across the table from the scientist doing that exact work.

And there's plenty on the table: multiple accepted presentations across pharmacoepidemiology, real-world methods, and therapeutic-area evidence, plus a live obesity evidence atlas running at the booth. Your meeting comes with an early look at all of it.

Tell us your question and your rough availability. We'll match you with the right scientist, confirm your slot, and send a calendar hold.



- The right scientist for your question
- A conversation matched to your therapeutic area
- An early look at our accepted work

Pedestal Health projects leverage Headwater Science methods, technology and causal inference expertise where the analytical complexity is highest, comparative effectiveness studies that require dynamic treatment design, regulatory-grade external control work, methodological consultation on submission packages, and the kinds of bias-protection frameworks that consequential evidence increasingly requires.
