Decision-making and cost effectiveness analyses rarely get as important as in the health systems - where matters of life and death are not a metaphor. Bayesian statistical modeling is extremely helpful in this field, with its ability to quantify uncertainty, include domain knowledge, and incorporate causal reasoning.
Specialized in all these topics, Gianluca Baio was the person to talk to for this episode. He’ll tell us about this kind of models, and how to understand them.
Gianluca is currently the head of the department of Statistical Science at University College London. He studied Statistics and Economics at the University of Florence (Italy), and completed a PhD in Applied Statistics, again at the beautiful University of Florence.
He’s also a very skilled pizzaiolo - so now I have two reasons to come back to visit Tuscany…
Our theme music is « Good Bayesian », by Baba Brinkman (feat MC Lars and Mega Ran). Check out his awesome work at bababrinkman.com/ !
