I am a pharmacoepidemiologist. I studied BSc Public health at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and PhD in pharmacoepidemiology at the University of Hong Kong. I moved to London in 2017 and worked on skin and renal disease epidemiology at LSHTM. I have been awarded British Heart Foundation fellowship to study drug drug interaction using electronic health records from UK and Hong Kong. I'm currently the deputy director of the Centre for Global Chronic Conditions.
