Shaw PhD, PharmD, MPH (Department of Pharmacy Administration/UIC), Simon Pickard PhD (Department of PharmacyPractice/UIC) and colleagues (Lin Zhan MS and Mark Oppe MSc) presented a poster entitled “Multinational Evaluation of Conditional Median Models of EQ-5D Health State Preferences” at the 17th Annual Conference of the International Society for Quality of Life Research (ISOQOL) that was awarded Best Policy Research Poster Award.  Story Continues
