Evidence by Design exists so that health decisions — funding, policy, treatment, pricing — rest on evidence that was built honestly and can be checked by anyone.
Too many health decisions are made on weak numbers — not because researchers don't care, but because rigorous methods are hard to access. We lower that barrier three ways:
Educator, researcher, and consultant specialising in veterinary epidemiology, disease-burden analysis, and health economics — widely recognised for highly-cited global health research and his academic contributions at Addis Ababa University.
His work bridges rigorous method and real-world decision-making: estimating disease burden where data is scarce, modelling cost-effectiveness for policy, and training the next generation of epidemiologists and health economists.
From disease-burden estimates that shaped funding decisions to methods training across three continents.
Consulting engagements and memberships fund the practice — and donations let us keep the calculators, templates, and training materials free for students and researchers in low-resource settings.
