VHC strongly represented at the LolaHESG conference 2019
This year’s lolaHESG conference took place the 23rd and 24th of May in Almen (NL). Our colleagues from VHC Silvia, Manuela, Mickaël, Javier, Ruben, Ben, Merel, Bram, Martijn, Marije, Xavier, Svenja, Stella, Ingrid, Willem, Luca, Irina, and Leonie were present.

Silvia, Manuela, Ruben, Ben, Bram, Merel, Stella, Xavier, and Ingrid discussed someone else’s paper. Ingrid, Marije, Martijn,Luca, Irina and Leonie had their papers discussed by someone else.
We look back on a great conference with fruitful discussions, a nice bbq and a fun pubquiz with health economists working in the Netherlands and Belgium!
