About

I am a Professor of Health Economics at the University of Texas School of Public Health and in the Institute for Learning Healthcare at the University of Texas McGovern Medical School. The primary focus of my research is the economic evaluation of public health and healthcare interventions and policies. This includes economic analyses, conducted alongside randomized clinical trials, which document evidence of the cost effectiveness of clinical interventions and follow-up care, in terms of costs relative to both specific health indicators and to patients’ utilities. In addition, I am also involved in economic evaluation of interventions designed to prevent illness. My interests in this area include investigation of the inter-relationships between economic activity and population health. I am involved in economic evaluations of interventions targeting at-risk populations, and I have active collaborative research projects with colleagues in several Texas Medical Center Institutions.
