About the ISPOR Chapters

The ISPOR Victoria and Tasmania Chapter was officially endorsed by ISPOR in April 2020. The Chapter is a collaboration between Deakin University, Monash University, University of Melbourne, and University of Tasmania. The Chapter caters to students and ECRs with interests in health economics, health services, and health outcomes research, especially in the disciplines of public health, epidemiology, health economics and pharmacology. The Chapter’s mission is to build capacity of members, to foster the development of excellence in the fields of health economics and health services and outcomes research. In addition, the Chapter seeks to create a platform where members can network and connect with others from pharmaceutical industry, health-related organizations, and academia.

The ISPOR Sydney Student and ECR Chapter, officially endorsed by ISPOR in July 2020, provides opportunities for professional development and a platform for knowledge exchange and networking for students and ECRs in health economics and outcomes research. The chapter is composed of students and ECRs from 7 universities across New South Wales and Canberra.
