All forecast data are available on the DRG Insights Platform in tabular format, with options to download to MS Excel. All populations are accompanied by a comprehensive description of the methods and data sources used, with hyperlinks to external sources. A summary evidence table generated as part of our systematic review of the epidemiological literature is also provided for full transparency into research and methods.

Mariah J. Scott, M.S., M.P.H.,is an associate epidemiologist at Clarivate. Previously, she investigated patient-reported outcomes on health-related quality of life during the transition from pediatric to adult care in patients with Sickle Cell Disease throughout the state of New Jersey. Ms. Scott received her B.S. in Molecular Biology from Montclair State University and her M.S. from Seton Hall University where she studied Microbiology and Immunology. She also holds an M.P.H. degree in epidemiology from Rutgers University.
T.J. Arndt, M.P.H., C.P.H.
Thomas J. Arndt, M.P.H., C.P.H., is a senior epidemiologist at Clarivate. He earned his master’s degree in public health at the University of Florida, where he conducted an internship developing a clinical model for noninvasively screening for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). He also holds a B.S. in microbiology and cell science and a B.A. in Spanish, both from the University of Florida. While studying at the University of Florida, Mr. Arndt worked in two physiology-based research labs focusing on maternal and fetal stresses during pregnancy and parturition.
