Eric P Green
Assistant Professor of the Practice of Global Health

I’m a psychologist and Assistant Professor of the Practice of Global Health who studies health and technology. I’m also a Co-Founder of Nivi , a digital health company based in Boston and Nairobi, Kenya.

Current Research Interests

I study how to bring health services closer to the people who need them. My work spans the continuum from formative studies that use design thinking approaches to create new services, to large scale randomized controlled trials to estimate the impact of interventions. See here for more details about my work.
