Eric is a "Data Guy with Personality".

Currently, he is a Senior Health Economist leading the OECD’s work in Digital Health, bringing together policy guidance for digital tools, integrated data, and responsible analytics including artificial intelligence. In that role, he is accountable for measuring and evolving the OECD’s Recommendation on Health Data Governance (2016) and supporting digital health policy that provides data protection (e.g. security and privacy) and timely access to quality data to optimize the use of data for information, insights, and impact among individuals, health workers, policy makers, researchers, and innovators. Eric’s work has led to publications on the use of Artificial Intelligence in Health, the state of Digital Security in Health across the OECD, and a thematic chapter on digital health in the OECD’s flagship Health-at-a-Glance 2023 report, which reflected on digital transformation as a determinant of health.
