Cutting Through the Noise: a Q&A with Director of Data Science at Kinetic
An Interview with Bharathi R. , Director of Data Science for Kinetic? at Syneos Health?
Working with big data
Leading this important data science team is Bharathi Ramachandran, Director of Data Science. With a wealth of knowledge in the healthcare data science
Syneos Health: What makes the Kinetic data science team unique?
Bharathi: The Kinetic team is made up of PhD and Masters’ level scientists, most of whom have healthcare-industry expertise. That’s actually quite unique. Data scientists tend to be generalists who understand the methodologies and core statistical principles of data science and can apply that knowledge to any industry. But because the scientists and analysts at Kinetic, like myself, also understand the healthcare industry, we can translate data more conscientiously, knowing the problems life science companies, HCPs and patients face on a day-to-day basis. That’s an important distinction between our data science team and others.
Syneos Health: Can you talk more specifically about how having life science expertise affects data translation?
Bharathi: Sure. The amount of data in the healthcare industry is incredibly vast, and it keeps growing every day. When data teams are working with that amount of data, their job is to cut through the noise, so to speak, build the right models, ask the right questions, and translate findings into meaningful insights

Syneos Health: Kinetic defines its work as building relationships with HCPs from lab to life. What specifically does that mean for the data science team?
Bharathi: All our solutions are geared toward reaching and optimizing interactions with those HCPs who have an increased capacity to prescribe in commercial settings, refer in clinical settings, and get educated in medical affairs settings. Specifically, we have developed an audience intelligence capability using AI and machine learning that can locate and leverage these propensities in HCPs using historical and real time behavioral data that pinpoints high-impact audiences for our customers.
The way we build HCP audiences is multidimensional and not solely based on prescribing or treatment behavior or patient volume. Rather, we profile HCPs more holistically based on various data points.
