Summary of Experience
Dr. Yang specializes in health economics and outcomes research (HEOR). She works closely with pharmaceutical, biotech, and device companies to develop HEOR strategies and to generate evidence throughout the product life cycle for value proposition. Dr. Yang designs and conducts studies from pipeline product development through product launch, post-market research, and biosimilar evaluation. She has extensive experience with clinical trial data, health insurance claims databases, electronic medical records, medical charts, primary surveys (including cross-sectional and prospective longitudinal cohort research), and qualitative research for evidence generation, with conventional and innovative methodologies.
Dr. Yang is an expert in clinical outcome assessments – such as patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and clinician-reported outcomes (ClinROs) – as well as health preference research.
