We are excited to introduce our newest team member, Dr Joshua Entrop, who is joining us as a Biostatistician and Associate Director of Business Development. With Joshua’s addition to our team, we are placing more emphasis on the strategic development of Red Door Analytics to ensure the continued success and growth of our company in the coming years.
Three questions to Joshua
What did you work on before you joined Red Door Analytics?
Right after I finished my Master’s degree in 2020, I began as a PhD student at the Cancer Epidemiology Group, part of the Clinical Epidemiology Division at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm. During my PhD studies, we combined registry data from Sweden, Denmark, and Norway to study childbearing in lymphoma survivors. I really enjoyed exploring and learning about the various data sources across Scandinavia and trying to integrate them to improve our scientific projects. As a spin-off from these projects, I also developed a new model for estimating the mean number of events when competing events exist.
In addition to my PhD studies, I also worked as a statistician within the same research group, where I helped seting up a large registry linkage, called LymphomaBaSe, around the Swedish lymphoma registry and provided statistical expertise to various internal and external research projects.
Why did you decide to join Red Door Analytics?
I deeply enjoy doing research. For me, as a statistician, this means answering research questions in the best possible way using advanced, up-to-date statistical methods. I felt that this is exactly what Red Door Analytics is all about. Working as a Biostatistician allows me to assist other researchers and clients with their research without the need to develop my own medical hypotheses or research questions.
What are you most excited about in your new role at Red Door Analytics?
In my role as a Biostatistician, I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge by working on projects in medical areas that I haven’t yet explored. However, what I am probably most excited about is contributing to the strategic development of Red Door Analytics in my role as Associate Director of Business Development.
