Summer school aim
This EURO PhD summer school aims to be a unique forum for PhD students and young researchers working in operational research in health to get acquainted with multiple topics – ranging from classical operational research topics as simulation and mathematical programming to value measurement and stakeholders engagement in health contexts – which are relevant to address health decision-makers needs and to generate sound operational research methods, knowledge and tools aligned with value-based health care.
Why a Summer school for “Operational Research for value-based healthcare”?
Health decision-makers in multiple contexts are increasingly seeking evidence and information that can guide them towards better health care management, policy-making and resource allocation.
You should apply if…
…you are a PhD student (or early career researcher):
- interested to get an in-depth understanding of concepts, methods and tools to the development of OR for value-based health care
- motivated for having an impact with their OR in health research
- eventually interested in presenting and discussing their research ideas
- interested in building your research network
