Mike Du
Postdoctoral Researcher in Health Data Sciences
I am a Postdoctoral Research Health Data Scientist in the NDORMS, University of Oxford Health data science division. Currently I am working on the DARWIN EU project as a health data scientist. My main research interests are advanced causal inference methods for treatment comparison studies in pharmacoepidemiology and medical device safety. I also have strong experience writing R packages for health data science research using OMOP CDM data.
