Health economic implications

We are interested in the health economic implications of genomic medicine interventions, particularly the impact on individuals and families of using genome sequencing for diagnosing rare diseases. Our work includes a focus on evaluating the psychometric performance of both standardised and bespoke patient- and caregiver-reported outcome measurement instruments.

Themes: Diagnosis and treatment, Risk and prevention, Evolving health system boundaries, Sustainability, Experiences of personalised medicine
