Behind the Paper Series – The Private Provision of Public Services: Evidence from Random Assignment in Medicaid

Behind the Paper is a 3-part series of moderated conversations with biomedical and public health researchers about how one of their most successful scientific papers came to be. We explore the false starts, organizational choices, funding challenges, authorship issues, reframes and rejections that came before publication, as well as the challenges of controlling a scientific narrative once the work reached the public domain. Behind the Paper Series is moderated by Lauren Taylor, PhD, MDiv, Assistant Professor, Department of Population Health, NYU Grossman School of Medicine.
