About me

Biography

I am Khanh Duong, a health economic researcher dedicated to building more effective and equitable health systems through evidence-based practice. My journey in this field has taken me from foundational training in pharmacy in Vietnam to advanced studies in Health Technology Assessment in Thailand and Pharmacotherapy Outcome Research in the United States.

Now, as a lecturer at the Department of Economic, Social, and Administrative Pharmacy at the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Health Sciences in Ho Chi Minh City, I am focused on leveraging evidence synthesis and economic modeling to inform health policy and improve public health.

Research Interests

My research focuses on the intersection of Evidence Synthesis, Cost-Effectiveness Analysis, and Health Technology Assessment. I apply these methods to address key challenges in public health, with a particular emphasis on Mental Health, Vaccination Programs, and the application of Artificial Intelligence.
