The workshop aims to provide a forum for empirical research in health economics, focusing in particular on risky health behaviors such as smoking, drinking alcohol, poor diet and a lack of physical activitiy (resulting in obesity), drug abuse, and unprotected sex. Empirical analyses of factors affecting risky health behaviors and of the consequences of those behaviors are encouraged for submission.

Thema: Riskante Gesundheitsverhalten
Riskante Gesundheitsverhaltensweisen – wie Rauchen, der Konsum von Alkohol und anderen Drogen, ungesunde Ernährung und eine geringe sportliche Aktivität – gehören zu den führenden vermeidbaren Todesursachen. Organisiert von Jan Marcus und Thomas Siedler vom Hamburg Center for Health Economics (HCHE) kamen am 27. und 28. Oktober 2017 internationale Gesundheitsökonomen zusammen, um über empirische Befunde zu den Ursachen und Auswirkungen von riskantem Gesundheitsverhalten zu diskutieren. Als Hauptredner waren die renommierten US-amerikanischen Gesundheitsökonomen John Cawley (Cornell University) und Christopher Carpenter (Vanderbilt University) bei uns zu Gast.
