About The Speaker

Dr. Lin received her PhD from the University of Arizona. Her research interests include topics in Industrial Organization, Health Economics, and Applied Econometrics. Her current research focuses on hospitals’ adoption of Health Information Technology (HIT). In her studies, she applies structural modeling to evaluate which IT systems hospitals use. She is also interested in how the adoption of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) impacts hospitals’ billing practices.

The Murphy Institute

Established in memory of Charles H. Murphy, Sr. (1870-1954), and inspired by the vision of Charles H. Murphy, Jr. (1920-2002), The Murphy Institute exists to help Tulane faculty and students understand economic, moral, and political problems we all face and think about. More important, it exists to help us understand how these problems have come to be so closely interconnected.
