Health Policy Data Science Lab
We are a group of interdisciplinary researchers at Stanford led by Dr. Sherri Rose. We develop and apply quantitative methods to solve problems in health policy, leveraging techniques from statistics, computer science, economics, epidemiology, and decision science.
Our areas of scientific interest are broad, spanning trade-offs for multiple health outcomes, causal inference, computational health economics, comparative effectiveness research, and payment reform impact evaluation.
What unites the Lab is an emphasis on pre-specified and transparent methodological choices, sound statistical decision making, data-motivated methodology development in the area of health policy, and effective presentation of results.
The Lab was originally co-founded in 2015 by Dr. Laura Hatfield and Dr. Sherri Rose.
