The Global Health Economics Centre (GHECO) at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) has published its 2026 brochure. It showcases the last three years of our members’ world-leading research and methodological work in health economics, as well as some recent highlights of the Centre.

The brochure highlights the breadth of our research all of our themes. Some of our key research achievements included work on the impact of calorie labels on consumer choice, contributions to the HIGH Horizons project, work on the UK’s food environment, analysis of hospital management practices in Malawi, and much more.

Alongside the research of our members, the brochure explores some of our flagship events and highlights from the past three years. This included our presence at the 2025 IHEA Congress in Bali, and our February 2026 symposium on changes to the NICE cost-effectiveness thresholds following the government decision to raise them.

Helen Harris-Fry (Associate Professor at LSHTM) and Simon Procter (Assistant Professor at LSHTM), who co-led the development of the brochure, said: “We are delighted to share GHECO’s latest brochure, which showcases a vast diversity of achievements, projects, events, and publications. Although this brochure provides only a snapshot, we hope that you will enjoy reading it and will be inspired to connect with us, or join us as a member. We are a warm and open community!”

Our brochure also took the opportunity to celebrate the legacy of Anne Mills, who recently retired after a 45+ year career at LSHTM where she established herself as a pioneering force in health economics. In acknowledgement of this, we launched our annual health economics lecture series in her name.

The report also spotlights several of our research students and early-career researchers, and our involvement in teaching. GHECO’s commitments to education include our members teaching on LSHTM’s MSc modules (also available as intensive modules) and two short courses around Decision Modelling for Health Economics Evaluation.

Read the complete brochure online. GHECO will also be printing physical copies to share across LSHTM, and for key events going forward. If you are interested in any collaborative work in any capacity, learn how to work with us on our website.
