Jinyi Zhu

Hi! My name is Jinyi Zhu. I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Health Policy at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. My research focuses on applications and methods to inform decision-making for resource allocation in public health and health care. Specifically, my research falls into three main areas: 1) resource prioritization for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease, 2) applied model-based cost-effectiveness analysis in other clinical areas including TB and HIV, and 3) methodological advances in disease simulation modeling (e.g., subgroup analysis and distributional cost-effectiveness analysis, model efficiency, and model calibration and validation).

I received a Ph.D. in Health Policy from Harvard University in 2022. I also hold an MPH from Yale University and a BS in Biology and BA in economics from Peking University.
