Profile
 
Sandra Hoffmann's research focuses on improving the role of regulation and tort law in managing health and environmental risks. Her research focuses on the role of economics in regulatory risk analysis, including the valuation of health benefits, regulatory design, and developing decision analysis models for regulatory decision-making. She works on a number of policy issues including food safety, valuation of children's benefits from environmental policy, modeling the social costs of pesticide use, and the health benefits of environmental policy in China.
