Biography

Verity has a PhD in Economics from University of Aberdeen. Verity's research interests include the valuation of non-market goods and experimental econmics. In particular, how individual complete hypothetical tasks. Verity is investigating this using field and laboratory experiments.

Verity has applied stated preference methods to value the health and non-health benefits of new drug treatments, proposed screening tests, and the provision of health care services. In doing so, Verity has worked with academics from a number of different disciplines, the government and the pharmaceutical industry.
