Harris Public Policy Dean Katherine Baicker will be joining her UChicago colleagues at the Institute of Politics for a discussion on the American Healthcare System. One of the best ways to "get to know Harris" is to attend an event or lecture that features our faculty, and get a read on the conversations we are having around various policy movements. If you can't attend the event, be sure to check out an interview from Dean Baicker describing the impact of her research on Medicaid expansion.
