Additionally, she will serve as course accountable faculty for the summer residency, co-instruct a course on service line management, and provide teaching support for experiential learning coursework within the curriculum.

Bjorn Berg, Ph.D., will teach Healthcare Operations Research and Analytics to our Full-time and Executive MHA students. Berg’s research is focused on applying operations research methods and analytic approaches within health care delivery settings. He earned his Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from North Carolina State University and most recently was employed by the Mayo Clinic.

Hanna Neprash, Ph.D., recently completed her Ph.D. in Health Policy, Economics track, from Harvard University. Neprash studies how physicians and other health care providers respond to incentives.
