Bio

Dr Mihir Gandhi is a health outcomes and utility measurement expert whose research focuses on the development, validation, and valuation of patient-reported outcome measures for use in clinical research, health technology assessment, and value-based healthcare. He is an Assistant Professor affiliated with the Centre for Biomedical Data Science (CBDS) and the Lien Centre for Palliative Care at Duke-NUS Medical School, and is also affiliated with the SingHealth Duke-NUS Global Health Institute. He is a Chartered Statistician of the Royal Statistical Society (UK) and a Chartered Scientist of the Science Council (UK).

His scholarly work sits at the interface of outcomes research, health economics, and applied biostatistics, with methodological contributions that have informed the measurement and valuation of health-related quality of life in diverse patient populations. He has published over 110 peer-reviewed journal articles and has an h-index of 37 (Google Scholar), with more than 4,000 citations. His work has contributed to the development and evaluation of preference-based instruments such as Quality of Care for Patients with Advanced Illness (QCPAI), Singapore Caregiver Quality of Life (SCQOLS), EQ-5D variants, and EORTC QLU-derived utility measures, supporting locally relevant value sets and quality-of-care measurement in Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region. He has been recognised as a Top 2% Scientist by citation impact in 2023 and 2024 and has served as Principal Investigator on grants from the National Medical Research Council (Singapore), EuroQol Research Foundation (Netherlands), and the Singapore Cancer Society.
