Personal Details
Prof. Joyce You joined the School of Pharmacy in 1999. She earned her Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree from the University of Illinois at Chicago (US) and completed her Pharmacy Practice Residency at the University of Michigan (US). Prof. You is a certified Specialist by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (US) in Pharmacotherapy with Added Qualification in Infectious Diseases.
Prof. You has initiated cost-effectiveness studies in collaboration with researchers from the disciplines of Cardiology, Clinical Pharmacology, Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Haematology, Infectious Diseases, Microbiology, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Oncology, Orthopedics & Traumatology, Public Health, Psychology, and Psychiatry.
Prof. You had leaded a randomised clinical trial comparing outcomes of pharmacist-managed versus physician-managed anticoagulation clinic. As a result of this project, the first clinical pharmacist-managed anticoagulation clinic in Hong Kong was established at the Prince of Wales Hospital (PWH) in 2002 and now sustained by the staff of Pharmacy Department at PWH.
Research
Research Interests
The focus of Dr. You’s research is the methodology development of pharmacoeconomics and health outcomes research, especially simulation designs using decision tree and Markov models. She works closely with Infectious Diseases and Microbiology physicians on outcome studies of infections caused by multi-drug resistant bacteria and emerging viruses. Much of her work also involves the study of anticoagulation therapy for Chinese patients, including the optimal control of anticoagulation therapy, the cost-effectiveness of the various models of care for patients receiving warfarin, and the role and cost-effectiveness of pharmacogenetic testing for Chinese patients receiving anticoagulation therapy.
