Lisa Prosser, PhD
Lisa Prosser, Ph.D., is an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Population Medicine. She is currently a Research Associate Professor in the Child Health Evaluation and Research Unit, Division of General Pediatrics at the University of Michigan Health System. Dr. Prosser's major research interests are (1) economic evaluations of health interventions and (2) methods for valuing changes in health. Her current research focuses on policy-relevant topics concerning the cost-effectiveness of childhood interventions, including influenza vaccination and newborn screening. Dr. Prosser's research on the economic impact of influenza vaccination has been used in setting national vaccine policy for children and for prioritizing subgroups in vaccine shortage years. Current research projects include a national survey on public values for preventing influenza illness and an evaluation of the cost-effectiveness of expanded newborn screening programs that includes parental stress and anxiety associated with false positive test results.
Another goal in Dr. Prosser's research is to advance the methods of valuing health for cost-effectiveness analysis, particularly for children's health states. One project underway is testing new approaches for valuing temporary health states using a discrete choice experiment.
Dr. Prosser received her Ph.D. in health policy from Harvard University. She also holds a M.S. degree from the MIT Sloan School of Management and a M.S. from the Technology and Policy Program at MIT. Her undergraduate degree is in mathematics from Cornell University.
