Professor Lou Garrison will give a whistle-stop tour de force of his many years of work at the interface of innovation markets and innovation value to healthcare systems and patients. He will delve into his international work on evolving value frameworks in rethinking how we capture and assess the value of innovation, beyond the economic value via concepts of productivity, spillover and equity value. He will cast a critical eye over cost effectiveness analysis and access against the rapidly changing political backdrop of governments grappling with health care cost containment.
This talk is part of the Economics and Regulation in Translational Science course, which forms part of the Translational Health Sciences programme. This event is free and open to all.
