Prior to joining IHME in 2007, Dr. Lim was a Senior Research Fellow at the School of Population Health at the University of Queensland and was based at the Ministry of Public Health in Thailand, where he led a major project on health information system capacity building with a focus on burden of disease and cost-effectiveness analysis. Previously, Dr. Lim worked at the Evidence and Information for Policy Cluster at the World Health Organization (WHO), where he was a key member of the Choosing Interventions that are Cost-Effective (CHOICE) project. Dr. Lim has been a member of numerous international expert groups, including the Technical Advisory Group for the US President's Malaria Initiative Impact Evaluation and The Lancet’s Chronic Disease Action Group.
