Natural Experiments : A Discussion with Anupam Jena and Kali Cyrus


Listen Later

Physician economist Anupam B. Jena advances the understanding of what works and what does not work in health care by using “natural experiments” and big data. He studies phenomena such as the economics of physician behavior and the physician workforce, health care productivity, and the economics of medical innovation. Bapu is the Ruth L. Newhouse Associate Professor of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School, an internist at Massachusetts General Hospital, and a Faculty Research Fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. He is the 2007 recipient of the Eugene Garfield Award by Research America for his work demonstrating the economic value of medical innovation in HIV/AIDS. In 2013, he was the first social scientist to win the NIH Director’s Early Independence Award. His research and editorials have been featured in the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Freakonomics, and NPR. He is also co-host of the podcast, Tradeoffs, which aims to make sense of the complicated, costly, and often counterintuitive world of health care. He spoke at TEDMED 2020 in Boston. Kali D Cyrus holds a BA in Psychology from Stanford University, an MPH in health policy & management from Emory University and an MD from the University of Illinois at Chicago. She completed her adult psychiatry residency training and served as a public psychiatry fellow at the Yale School of Medicine. Kali is currently an assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry of Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. She worked on Capital Hill from 2017- 2018 as a health policy fellow in the Office of Senator Chris Murphy and was a Jeanne Spurlock congressional fellow.  View her recent work: How Racism is Causing Black and Latinx Communities to Die of COVID-19 at Higher Rates on NowThis News
