Richard Grieve is Professor of Health Economics Methodology at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. He has made an outstanding contribution to the methods of health economic evaluation which provide critical evidence for deciding which medical advances are used in practice. New methods for studies that use observational data, cluster randomised trials, and multicentre RCTs have been developed by his team, and have provided evidence that has informed major decisions.
