Dr. King is currently an Assistant Professor of Population Health Sciences in the Division of Health System Innovation and Research and an Affiliate Investigator at the Institute for Health Research at Kaiser Permanente Colorado. His research is focused on improving medication use, particularly through the use of pharmacist-led health services. In particular, his lab has focused on anticoagulant management strategies, antihypertensive medication use and outcomes, and helping patients make unbiased decisions after experiencing statin-related side effects. His research has been published in the New England Journal of Medicine, The Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Diabetes Care, Hypertension, and JAMA Cardiology. He has been previously funded as a Principal Investigator by an AHRQ R18 (R18HS026156) and is currently funded by an NHLBI R01 (R01HL157439). He is also an NIH Loan Repayment Program awardee.

Dr. King received his Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Roseman University of Health Sciences, and his Masters of Science in Clinical Investigation from the University of Utah School of Medicine. He completed his post-doctoral research fellowship in Health Economics and Outcomes Research in the Pharmacotherapy Outcomes Research Center at the University of Utah College of Pharmacy.
