DRIVING HEALTH CARE INNOVATION IN A TUMULTUOUS ECONOMY
Hosted by Bristol Myers Squibb
Current macroeconomic trends and new laws around the world are shaking up the health care industry. Tightening budgets and legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act in the U.S. are causing many to rethink their priorities and what to invest in. Despite the challenges of this new era, founders and investors still see opportunities. We’ll hear from leaders working to navigate an uncertain economy and explore how they are activating innovation amid new patient expectations and growing technology disruption.

The Becker Friedman Institute was pleased to host its inaugural Open Source Macroeconomics Laboratory (OSM Lab), which ran an intenstive and immersive seven-week computational macroeconomics boot camp from June 19 to August 4, 2017. The goals were to: train advanced undergraduates and graduate students with the computational skills to participate in cutting-edge economic research and public policy analysis; inspire the brightest young researchers to pursue policy-relevant work throughout their careers; spread the ideals of transparency and replicability throughout the economics profession from the ground up; and accelerate scientific progress in economics and policy analysis more broadly

Machine learning techniques are being actively pursued in the private sector and have been widely adopted in fields such as computational biology and computer vision. However, the role of machine learning in economics has so far been limited. This workshop was organized to provide a forum to discuss how ideas and techniques from machine learning could be applied to economic questions. The workshop will bring together researchers from computer science, statistics, econometrics and applied economics to foster interactions and discuss different perspectives on statistical learning and its potential impact on economics.
The workshop began with overview talks on machine learning and statistics by researchers from outside of economics. Three following sessions were organized around the themes of causal inference, prediction, and networks and complex data. Each session included the presentation of papers in economics that make use of machine learning methodology, followed by a discussion by researchers from multiple communities.
