Academic career

She graduated with a bachelor's in economics and German Literature from Hamilton College in 1994. After a year studying in Europe as a Watson Fellow, she obtained a doctorate degree in economics from University of Maryland, College Park in 1999.[2]

She is a research associate at the NBER, affiliated with the Children, Health Care, and Health Economics programs,[3] and an associate editor of the Journal of Health Economics.[4] She is consulted by the press as an expert in the field of health care economics.[5][6][7]

Recently, some of her work has focused on the impact of the Affordable Care Act on the labour market regarding work hours; she finds very minimal effect on part-time work as a result of the institution of the law.[8][9]

gollark: If you disæssemble something into its constituent particles or something, record every detail of their state (which might be impossible too?) and transmit it to another thing which reassembles it, that's lightspeed teleportation, ish.
gollark: I don't think they're canonically confirmed as doing that, and also it makes no sense.
gollark: It's still limited to lightspeed.
