Our Team
To accelerate deployment and foster wide uptake of medical informatics methods and tools into medication safety research and practice, requires people from different disciplines and backgrounds to work together, to build a shared understanding
within each community of the priorities and limitation of the other, thereby improving the ability to create information technology solutions that will make real-world impact.
Therefore, our multidisciplinary team brings all the required expertise and complementary and synergistic perspectives on leveraging real-world data and data analytics in the healthcare domain.
