Meet Hongjie (Harry) Qian

Tell us a bit about yourself

Born in Changshu, China, I was immersed in a multicultural education environment, doing my undergrad degree in pharmacy at both China Pharmaceutical University (Nanjing, China) and the University of Strathclyde (Glasgow, Scotland). Stemmed from my pharmacy background, I clearly see a strong need for statistical analytics in medication safety and outcome research, and then I came to the sunny UC San Diego for a master's in biostatistics.

What are you studying/researching?

Working and collaborating closely with Prof Inmaculada (Inma) Hernandez (Division of Clinical Pharmacy, Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences), I combine my background and knowledge in both pharmacy and biostatistics/epidemiology and devote myself to pharmacoepidemiology and pharmaceutical outcomes.

Tell us about your campus involvement at UC San Diego.

I have been actively engaging myself in the pharmaceutical/biotechnology community in San Diego. I worked as a summer intern at Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine in La Jolla, summer 2024, meeting different people in different functionalities within therapy development pipelines. Among them, a lot were also from UC San Diego, where a central role of UC San Diego is this pharm/biotech community can be easily recognized.

Have you been awarded any fellowships/grants?
