For researchers who are new to health economic evaluations, join this session to learn how to integrate health economic methods into your work. This workshop introduces concepts of health economics in the context of substance use research and shares resources to help researchers understand how economic evaluations can help elevate their projects.

On the agenda, CHERISH investigators Kathryn McCollister, Sean M. Murphy, and Bruce Schackman will review examples that illustrate how economic methods were used to evaluate:

1) The first legal syringe service program in state of Florida (view publication); and

2) A combination of HIV care implementation strategies, taking into account health equity, in 6 U.S. cities (view publication)

This training session is hosted in person at Florida International University and online via Zoom (download flyer).
