Hello,
I have a doctorate in Economics and more than 15 years of research experience including publishing in and refereeing for well-regarded journals such as the RAND Journal of Economics and the Journal of Public Economics. I have also completed more than 100 freelance research topics in a variety of academic fields including health using a variety of techniques on elance and odesk.
I am not sure I can help with this, but I would be happy to discuss your project with you. In the meantime, I will put in a placeholder bid halfway between the bounds and a time of one month, although it may take more or less time and I may be willing to work for less (or more :) ) depending on the difficulty and time involved in the project. If need be we can add milestones later.
I am available immediately, having just completed a project. I look forward to hearing from you and discussing details with you.
Kind regards,
Hugh
