Dahlia Remler is a Professor at the Marxe School of Public and International Affairs at Baruch College, City University of New York (CUNY). She is also a member of the faculty at CUNY Graduate Center and serves as a Faculty Research Fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. Her academic career spans multiple prestigious institutions including Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health, where she was previously an assistant professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management.
Professor Remler's educational background includes:
- Ph.D. in Economics from Harvard University
- M.A. in Economics from Harvard University
- D. Phil in Physical Chemistry from Oxford University (as a Marshall Scholar)
- B.S. in Electrical Engineering from University of California, Berkeley
Professor Remler's research focuses primarily on health economics, with particular expertise in medical care price indexes, managed care, simulation methods for health insurance take-up, cost-sharing mechanisms, health insurance and health care markets, and cigarette tax regressivity. Her work has significantly contributed to understanding how health insurance affects poverty measurement, particularly through her development of health-inclusive poverty measures that account for the value of health insurance benefits. She has published extensively in top journals including the Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, the Quarterly Journal of Economics, and the American Journal of Public Health.
Her recent scholarly output demonstrates a strong focus on integrating health insurance considerations into poverty measurement frameworks, examining the impact of Medicaid expansions on poverty rates, and developing methodological approaches for causal inference in health policy evaluation. Professor Remler has also maintained a consistent interest in research methods, particularly in understanding quasi-experimental and natural experimental designs for policy analysis.
Professor Remler has received numerous prestigious awards and fellowships throughout her career:
- Frank R. Bruel Memorial Prize for Best Paper published in Social Service Review (2019)
- Zvi Griliches Award for the best empirical article in the Quarterly Journal of Economics (2000)
