Helena Roy
I am a PhD in economics at Stanford University, researching behavior and information technologies in the context of healthcare. I'm interested in how people demand, access, and interpret health information, as well as how to create and integrate novel information technologies in medical practice. Current projects include work on patient and physician responses to AI-driven digital health tools, patient responses to increasing availability of health information online, and the determinants of physician decisions in maternal healthcare. I hold degrees from Cambridge (Pembroke College) and Oxford (Nuffield College). More information is available on my CV.
Alongside my research, I'm a fellow at the Centre for British Progress, exploring how policy can encourage economic growth via innovation. An example of my work in this space can be found at UK Day One.
I'm from the UK and Aotearoa New Zealand, and enjoy triathlon, diving, and flat whites.
