Jacob Jameson

I am a PhD candidate in Health Policy and Decision Sciences at Harvard University. My research develops and applies methods in causal inference, decision modeling, and reinforcement learning to generate and synthesize evidence for better decision-making in health and public policy.
I study the impacts of physician behavior, health policies, and personalized medicine. I am an NIMH T32 Predoctoral Research Fellow in Comparative Effectiveness Research for Suicide Prevention at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and a Research Statistician with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
I also care deeply about teaching. I have been fortunate to work with students at Harvard, the University of Chicago, and New Haven Public Schools during my time as a Teach For America corps member.
