Hi there! I’m Gatien.
Field health economist at the International Vaccine Access Center (IVAC) @ Johns Hopkins University.
My specialty is getting to know and analyze the economic burden of disease through costing and willingness-to-pay. I also worked for a few years on health literacy, open access publishing, waiting times for health care, and universal health coverage.
And I’m an amateur blogger.

And I must say I … Continue reading What has changed in the lives (and pattern of death) of American women and men?
