Graphic showing a headshot of Robert Malcolm with a quote from the blog. The text reads: "Robert Malcolm, Project Director." "Health equity is gaining more and more attention within industry and research… the shortfall is how much we adopt implementation science. Implementation science is used to identify the factors that affect the uptake of a clinical innovation into routine use. We can start to speculate what the impact of a new intervention might be, but without implementation science, we cannot be sure that what we think an intervention will do will actually happen in practice." The YHEC logo also features.

New blog on health equality and economic evaluation.

Hello Skysters!

I'm a health economist with a keen interest in #EconomicEvaluation, #CausalInference, and #RealWordData to help inform the allocation of care interventions!

I'm a big supporter of patient-reported outcomes for this purpose. My research focuses on mental health, among other areas.
