HPI-ZEW-DIW Workshop on
Applied Economics in Digital Health

The digital revolution in health care is changing how medical services are delivered and managed and how new products are developed. Economists from different fields have started to analyze how digital tools, IT, and novel sources of data are transforming health care delivery, markets, and regulations. 

This workshop aims to provide a platform for researchers from health economics, industrial economics, labor economics, digital economics, innovation/entrepreneurship economics, and behavioral economics to explore, discuss and contribute to the evolving field of digital health economics.
