Dr Anna Schultze

Assistant Professor

Jump to: Affiliations Teaching Research Publications

I am a pharmacoepidemiologist based in the Electronic Health Records (EHR) group researching drug and vaccine safety using large observational databases. Before joining LSHTM, I worked as an epidemiologist in the pharmaceutical industry where I led post-authorisation safety and comparative effectiveness studies, primarily using nationwide Scandinavian health registries. I completed a PhD in epidemiology at UCL in 2017, focusing on HIV drug resistance, and also hold an MSc in Epidemiology from LSHTM and a BSc in Human Sciences from UCL.

Teaching

I am a module organiser for Extended Epidemiology, and teach on Basic Epidemiology, the Professional Certificate course in Pharmacoepidemiology and Introduction to Health Data Science. My teaching covers a range of topics ranging from introductory epidemiology to reproducible programming/git. I also supervise a number of MSc students.

Research

I am broadly interested in how we can better use routinely collected data to study the effectiveness and safety of medications. My current research focuses on self-controlled study designs, specifically applied to COVID-19 vaccine safety and single-arm studies (long-term extensions of clinical trials). I have been involved in several broader studies of drug repurposing for COVID-19 and descriptive epidemiology using the OpenSAFELY platform. I'm particularly interested in reproducibility and open science, and also lead some meta-research on these practices in pharmacoepidemiology.
