What did you do in your PhD program to set you up for success in your career?
I actively engaged as a research assistant during my PhD program at UC Riverside. There, I performed statistical analysis, including logistic regression, linear regression, and correlation analysis on healthcare and health-related datasets.
I did this for about four or five years of my PhD program. I also taught myself R and some Python, along with statistics. I believe these skills helped me succeed in my current position, as did earning my degree.
