About Earl J Morris

Earl Morris, Pharm.D., M.P.H., Ph.D. is a Research Assistant Professor in the Department of Pharmaceutical Outcomes and Policy in the University of Florida College of Pharmacy. He received his Pharm.D. degree and M.P.H. degree from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in 2019. He then received his Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the University of Florida College of Pharmacy in 2023. During his Ph.D. training, he was awarded an American Heart Association predoctoral fellowship. Dr. Morris is a pharmacoepidemiologist and pharmacist by training with a primary focus in leveraging rigorous pharmacoepidemiologic methods to answer clinical questions in the areas of geriatric pharmacotherapy and cardiorheumatology. His research aims to improve the identification and mitigation of adverse drug events in older adults and to better understand cardiovascular risk profiles among individuals with rheumatologic conditions. His work has been published in Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety, the American Journal of Hypertension, Research in Social and Administrative Pharmacy, the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, the American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education, the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, and more.
