Biography
Michael joined the Health Economics Research Unit (HERU) in 2019 after completing an MSc in Health Economics at the University of York. He is currently a Research Fellow and PhD student, supervised by Professor Mandy Ryan and Dr Rodolfo Hernández. In his PhD, Michael is exploring the value of genome sequencing to patients and families with rare conditions in Scotland, using a discrete choice experiment (DCE) and cost-benefit analysis modelling.
Alongside his PhD, Michael is currently involved in a cost-effectiveness analysis of genetic and genomic testing, an economic evaluation of precision medicine for Diabetes, and public preferences for a net zero NHS.
