Funded Activity Summary

Many health care interventions shown to be effective and cost-effective under controlled conditions are consistently under-utilised or mis-used in resource poor settings, especially by the most deprived groups. Over the next 4 years I will establish a program of health economics and health services research to improve the delivery and financing of health care interventions to ensure everyone reaps the benefits of medical science and health technologies and not just those who can afford it.
