Sascha Dublin, MD, PhD
Assistant Investigator
Research Interests:
Dr. Dublin's main interest is in studying drug safety in the elderly
using observational data. She is currently conducting research to examine
possible associations between medication use and pneumonia risk in the
elderly. She seeks to improve the methods used to study drug safety in the
elderly by exploring bias that may arise when observational studies do not
take into account coexisting illnesses and functional and cognitive status.
Her interests include epidemiologic methods, such as case-control studies
and techniques to measure and control for potential confounding factors.
Dr Dublin collaborates with the Group Health Center for Health Studies'
(CHS) aging and immunization research teams, and her experience includes
work with the Cardiovascular Health
Research Unit, a joint division of CHS and the University of Washington.
She holds a five-year Paul
B. Beeson Career Development Award in Aging Research. She is also a
board-certified general internist who sees patients one day a week in
primary care at Group Health. Her clinical interests include women's health,
evidence-based medicine, and safe medication prescribing in the elderly.
