Please join us for a conversation with Schaeffer Distinguished Scholar Daniel McFadden, whose groundbreaking work in choice modeling earned him the Nobel Prize in Economics. McFadden’s research centers around how individuals make decisions among discrete alternatives, such as choosing between medical treatment options or healthcare benefit packages. His model and findings have revolutionized how economists analyze and think about consumer behavior and market demand. During the webinar, Schaeffer’s Director of Public Policy Barry Liden will talk with McFadden about the evolution of his pioneering work and what the future holds for how we study and understand human choice.

This webinar is co-hosted by the USC Schaeffer Institute for Public Policy & Government ServiceIAHPR, the PREFER Expert Network, the iHEA Health Preference Research Special Interest Group and the Erasmus Choice Modelling Centre.
