Scientific rigor is a hallmark of our work, as demonstrated in our substantial contributions to scientific literature.

Our economists serve on collaborative research teams with experts across the research and practice areas of importance to our clients—including public health and health care, climate change and the environment, agriculture and land use, criminal justice, energy, economic development, and innovation and technological change.
