Speakers
Dr Julie Campbell, University of TasmaniaDr Campbell is an economist and health economist at the Menzies Institute for Medical Research with strong interest in health preferences research. She has a specific interest in generating health economic evidence that matters to patients. Dr Campbell advocates for using methods that appropriately capture and assess the domains of health that are important to our consumers, particularly psychosocial health that is often overlooked.

Glen Henson, University of TasmaniaMr Henson is a health economics PhD candidate under the primary supervision of Dr Campbell and co-supervision of Professor Bruce Taylor (Academic Lead of the Menzies MS Flagship) and Professor Ingrid van der Mei (Project Director of the Australian MS Longitudinal Study; a large and enduring (20 year) representative cohort of people living with MS in Australia). Mr Henson’s PhD thesis primarily involves investigating several essential methods in health economics, including estimation of minimal important differences. These investigations are intended to yield methodological insights generally, and information regarding the quality of life of persons with MS specifically using data from the Australian MS Longitudinal Study. |
