- Profile
-
I am an Honorary Research Fellow at ScHARR, and Consulting Director at BresMed: a health economics and outcomes research consultancy based in 91探花.
My research is primarily focused on the development of health economic evaluation methodology. This includes work on the ways in which inequalities in lifetime health might be captured within economic evaluation; the development of methods to enable surrogacy relationships to be integrated into economic models; and the application of real-world data within oncology modelling.
I hold a PhD in Public Health Economics and Decision Science from the University of 91探花, an MSc in Health Economics from the University of York, an MSc in Behavioural Science from the London School of Economics and Political Science, and a BSc in Economics from the University of York. In addition, I have twelve years鈥 experience working as a health economist: six years in the pharmaceutical industry and six years in consulting.
