Hello, we are the Scottish Health Economics Early Career (SHEEC) network.
A sub-group of the Scottish Health Economics (SHE) collaboration, we aim to create a conversation network for people who are at an early stage of their involvement in health economics and related research in Scotland.
We are linking together as a community – across Scotland’s Universities, NHS and Government – to share and learn.
