Hopkinson.

PhD Candidate  ·  UCL School of Pharmacy 📍 London

I am a final-year PhD student in Pharmacoepidemiology at University College London School of Pharmacy. My research uses observational data, including electronic health records, to investigate medication safety in older adults living with dementia.

My PhD draws on a range of study designs and methods, including target trial emulation, active-comparator new-user designs, clone-censor-weight analyses, self-controlled case series, case-crossover and case-case-time-control designs, network analysis, and interactive data visualisation.

I hold an MSc in Health Data Science from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and a BA in Statistics from Harvard University.

I am interested in causal inference, data visualisation, and open science. As the first in my family to attend university, I am also keen to improve socioeconomic diversity in academic research.
