RCTs, Health Economics, and Real-World Policy with Dr. Jessica L. Cohen

On May 26, 2026, the JEC welcomed a professor from the Harvard T.H Chan School of Public Health for a discussion about how economists use randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to identify effective programs and policies for governments, health systems, and international organizations. The event was then followed by a Q&A where attendees learned more about Dr. Cohen’s fieldwork spanning the United States and East Africa.
