Professional Experience and Notable Career Achievements:
My professional trajectory is distinguished by the application of econometric methods and causal evaluation in global contexts. I currently co-lead projects focused on the marginal productivity of public health expenditure and the relationship between payment schemes and pharmaceutical innovation. My experience also includes the evaluation of health system reforms, the development of methods for measuring health inequalities, and the analysis of organizational efficiency in the provision of healthcare services. I have led research on intervention costs, mental health in conflict settings, and health inequalities.
Research Interests and Areas of Study:
My research focuses on various topics within Welfare Economics, particularly the application of econometric methods to address research questions related to health and causal evaluation. I am interested in topics related to nutrition, social and care policies, efficiency and quality in healthcare service delivery, and management capacity within healthcare units. I also investigate how pharmaceutical innovation translates into improvements in population health, and how incentive and regulatory mechanisms impact access to and the sustainability of health systems.
