Although this year’s AHES conference has been rescheduled for September 2021, the Australian Health Economics Society (AHES) is pleased to announce that the Australian Health Economics Doctoral (AHED) Workshop will go ahead as a virtual meeting.
The aim of the workshop is to gather PhD students in health economics for an exchange of knowledge with some of the most senior leaders in the field of health economics in Australia. Students will have the opportunity to engage in high level discussion with experts in the field of health economics as well as network with fellow PhD students. Up to four research abstracts on any topic in health economics will be competitively selected for inclusion in the program. Selected submissions will have the opportunity to present their work on the day of the workshop.
The AHED Workshop Prize for Best Presenter will also be awarded to one of the students for excellence in their oral presentation. All students are encouraged to attend the workshop, even if not presenting.
Workshop Details
The workshop will feature presentations from four selected PhD students. Each presentation will be followed by a commentary from a Discussant providing opportunity for the student to receive constructive feedback on their work, followed by time for general audience questions and discussion. The workshop also includes a career development session presented by AHES President, Professor Julie Ratcliffe.
