◆  Background
  • PhD Student, Institute of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine, National Taiwan University College of Public Health (2020-)
  • MBA, Graduate Institute of Data Science, College of Management, Taipei Medical University, Taiwan (2017-2019)
  • BSc, Department of Public Health, College of Public Health, China Medical University, Taiwan (2011-2015)

◆  Research Interests
  • I received a bachelor degree in public health and minor study in occupational safety and health from China Medical University, Taiwan, in 2015. After graduation, I joined the Center of Excellence for Chang Gung Research Datalink, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital and was responsible for doing data analyses using the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) in Taiwan. In 2019, I received a master degree in data science at the Taipei Medical University, Taiwan. My research interests include information retrieval and text mining. I have learned machine learning and natural language processing (NLP) including python programming and have participated in several projects such as finding pregnant women in twitter, detecting cold symptoms in twitter, identifying occupational diseases in a reporting system, and cohort selection for a clinical trial in electronic healthcare records (EHRs). Thus, I'd like to use my knowledge and skills in solving issues of data science in the real world.
