OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Cost-effectiveness analysis is vital for establishing the economic credentials of interventions prior to implementation so that health outcomes are maximised. Most simulation models for economic analysis in health adopt conventional techniques that were developed for health technology assessment. System dynamics modelling is a less-used but growing approach that may be useful for contexts of complex dynamic systems, such as public health, mental health care and chronic disease prevention. This presentation will include a case study of using a system dynamics modelling approach to conduct cost effectiveness analysis of eight strategies for improving the mental health and wellbeing of children, adolescents and young people in the Australian Capital Territory.
