“Causal Inference for Complex Observational Data”
Sheps Center Room 2002
Observational data often have issues which present challenges for the data analyst. The treatment status or exposure of interest is often not assigned randomly. Data are sometimes missing not at random (MNAR) which can lead to sample selection bias. And many statistical models for these data must account for unobserved confounding. This talk will demonstrate how to use standard maximum likelihood estimation to fit extended regression models (ERMs) that deal with all of these common issues alone or simultaneously.
This seminar will be hybrid! Join us at the Sheps Center in room 2002 (2nd floor). There is plenty of free parking available. Sheps is located at 725 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Chapel Hill, NC.
