Leading the charge in global health research and policy.
The Institute of Health Economics, Epidemiology and Translational Science (IHEETS) is an interdisciplinary research institute committed to advancing population health through rigorous science, evidence-based policy, and meaningful translation of research into practice. Guided by the principle “Data to Discovery, Discovery to Health,” IHEETS works at the intersection of health economics, epidemiology, and translational science to generate knowledge that leads to real-world health impact.
IHEETS seeks to transform complex data into actionable insights that inform policy, strengthen healthcare systems, and improve health outcomes. By integrating economic evaluation, epidemiologic methods, and translational innovation, the institute produces robust and policy-relevant evidence that supports sustainable, equitable, and patient-centred healthcare decisions at local, national, and global levels.
Collaboration and scientific excellence are central to IHEETS’ approach. The institute brings together researchers, clinicians, data scientists, and policy experts to address complex health challenges through interdisciplinary partnerships. This collaborative model enables the development of innovative solutions that bridge the gap between discovery and implementation.
Equity and integrity guide all of IHEETS’ work. The institute is committed to addressing health disparities and ensuring that the benefits of scientific progress reach all populations, regardless of socioeconomic, geographic, or demographic differences. Through transparent, ethical, and community-engaged research, IHEETS strives to build trust and deliver evidence that drives healthier lives and stronger health systems.
