Gerard Chung
I am a research fellow at the Singapore Institute for Clinical Sciences, A*STAR, Singapore. I also hold an adjunct position at the Social Service Research Centre at the National University of Singapore.
I previously worked as a social worker at Fei Yue Family Service Centre.
As a social work researcher, my research focuses on parenting, fathers, family services in the community, and intervention research. I am also interested to advance the use of administrative data in the social service sector to improve social work practices and to evaluate interventions and services.
I identify as a quantitative methodologist where the through line connecting my research interests involved the use of computational social science methods and advanced statistical methods. I am most interested to use text-as-data methods to explore insights from open-survey responses and textual data generated from unconventional sources.
