William Gardner

I am a global health researcher interested in the political economy of health and health inequality, global maternal and child health, and universal health coverage.

I currently work as a Research Scientist at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington. I work on the Global Burden of Disease study, modeling the disease burden due to neonatal infectious diseases, impairment due to anemia, disease burden attributable to a variety of nutritional and environmental risk factors, and coverage of essential obstetric care interventions.
