Research
Areas of Research
My research has for many years focused mainly on pharmaceutical markets -- innovation, competition, pricing, and policy. I have particular interests in (a) access to medicines in lower-income countries, (b) innovation in antibiotics, (c) drugs for rare diseases, and (d) generic drug pricing policy.
I've also worked on electricity markets and on a historical microfinance institution in Ireland, the "loan funds".
Recently I have been thinking a lot about the relationship between innovative technologies and climate change.
Projects
The Health Impact Fund is a proposed mechanism to support innovation and access to medicines for people in low- and lower middle-income countries. The Fund's development is being advanced through the US-base NGO Incentives for Global Health, of which I am President.
The Green Impact Fund for Transformation is a new proposal exploring the opportunities to support transfer to developing countries of low-carbon technologies.
