We are delighted to welcome Dr. Onur Baser to CUNY SPH as professor of health economics in the Health Policy and Management department.
Dr. Baser joins us from Columbia University where he was associate professor at the Center for Innovation and Outcomes Research. He also worked as adjunct professor of internal medicine at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
His work in the field of propensity score matching was one of the first applications of econometric techniques in outcomes research to provide guidelines for choosing among different types of matching techniques. He created several proprietary algorithms for comparative effectiveness studies in health economics and outcomes research. His work attracted over $25M funding from private and government institutions.
Dr. Baser is a frequent speaker at international conferences and serves as a litigation expert on statistical issues on health care data analysis. He is currently editor in chief for the Journal of Health Economics and Outcomes Research.
He has over 500 worldwide presentations and publications and contributed on several book chapters. His book on estimation of health care costs was published in April 2012.
“We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Baser to our dynamic faculty team,” says Dean Ayman El-Mohandes. “We look forward greatly to his research and teaching contributions.”
