Beautiful weather today at #ISPORAnnual and opening remarks on the vision and objectives of ISPOR that show jusf as bright of a future as the weather ☀️great to see the focus on equity and evolutionary and revolutionary thinking!!

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

Second talk also with great info from Lizheng Shi on a discrete choice experiment showing the need for core measurements

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

About to listen to a talk on challenges and opportunities of patient preference assessment! Super important topic area to ensure we put patients first! #ISPORAnnual

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

And agreement on measurement is 🔑

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

Great first presentation from Elizabeth Clearfield!! Was surprising but really hopeful to see so many experts in the room agree with the need for core outcome sets in patient reported outcomes #ISPORAnnual

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

What better way then to try and re-engage with Twitter then trying to tweet highlights from #ISPORAnnual. If you’re interested in #HEOR #HTA and other topics stay tuned fore more

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

@MWindzy Yes do it!!!

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

Excited for day 2 of #ISPORAnnual but really questioning how so few people who study disease for a living are wearing masks…Not judging anyone, but does make me nervous and uncomfortable so sorry if you see me and i am not chatty

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

And for anyone who says ministers are not supposed to be apolitical and the courts are....well I am working on a study design now to show the impact of personal beliefs is present in the courts and impacts population health. Stay tuned

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

Today I presented a semester long research project investigating the impact of a politician's education on population health outcomes (specifically COVID)

I started by saying I was going to do my best to get through the slides because the issue was sadly, timely

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

Although underpowered, my results show politician's background or beliefs impact population health/ COVID outcomes

I don't think I need to go into more detail. The point is clear.

Glad to be able to share my story and spread awareness on why we need to #ActOnNCDs.

[Health Finance Institute @HealthFinInst]

At HFI, our team is motivated by our #NCD stories. Listen to @WinbergDebra's story on why she believes we need to #ActOnNCDs 👇

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

To clarify these people are not wearing masks inside buildings

[Debra Winberg @WinbergDebra]

If you were in a city with a huge COVID issue (worst in the country) and a mask mandate in place for everyone regardless of vaccine status, yet see people not wearing a mask or wearing it under the nose, do you say something?

Debating social norms in these weird and scary times

[Health Finance Institute @HealthFinInst]

At HFI, we believe #blendedfinance is the key to closing the gap in #NCD funding.

Blended finance:

1. Can increase health programs’ impact 🌍

2. May deliver risk-adjusted returns 📈

3. Improves overall health and wellbeing ♥️

If grad school doesn't work out I am going to try to go viral with a podcast called Nuance

I am realizing more and more that half of the world's arguments could be solved if people just understood that nuance exists

We MUST explore this nuance to compromise and make progress

[Re:solve Global Health @Resolve_GH]

We’re thrilled to announce our new knowledge partner: Health Finance Institute!🎊

@HealthFinInst offers high-impact, evidence-based #investments for the prevention, treatment, and management of #NCDs.

We’re glad to have you on board!
