PhD Candidate
University of Alberta, Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Canada
Danielle Nagy is a third year PhD candidate at the University of Alberta in the Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences. She earned her Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) at the University of Alberta in 2020. Under the supervision of Dr. Scot Simpson, her thesis research is focused on uncovering inequities in processes of care during the management of type 2 diabetes across the rural-urban continuum. Beyond differences in infrastructure and access to hospitals and specialists, Danielle’s research reveals discrepancies in clinical decision making with respect to prescribing and monitoring practices among rural, urban, and metropolitan-dwelling patients.
In addition to her scholarly work, Danielle also holds several teaching assistantships in the undergraduate PharmD courses and has co-developed a graduate-level course on foundational knowledge in health services research. Danielle also practices part-time as a community pharmacist in Edmonton and is a Continuing Competence Program Assessor with the Alberta College of Pharmacy.
