Biography

Verity worked at HERU for over 20 years and is now an Honorary Professor at the University. Verity's expertise is non-market valuation using contingent valuation and discrete choice experiments. Her research focuses on testing the validity of non-market valuation methods and how study context can influence responses.

Verity has applied these methods to inform a range of policy issues. In doing so she has worked with academics from a number of different fields, the government and the pharmaceutical industry.
