Dear Colleagues,
*Causal Inference for Assessing Effectiveness in Real World Data and
Clinical Trials: A Practical Hands-on Workshop* will take place in March
16-20, 2020, in Hall in Tirol, Austria. This 5-day course provides training
on causal inference methods for the estimation of comparative effectiveness
in observational real world data, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and
pragmatic trials with a specific focus on adjustment for time-varying
confounding, selection bias, and treatment switching. The course is
relevant for clinical researchers, statisticians, epidemiologists and
health economists involved in health technology assessment, and for those
reading the ICH E9 Addendum on Estimands and wanting to know how to
estimate hypothetical estimands in RCTs.
The course includes graphical concepts (causal diagrams), structural
approaches (target trial) and statistical methods (e.g., g-estimation,
marginal structural models, and two-stage method). We combine theoretical
concepts with practical applications using real world case examples. For

The early-bird registration deadline is 13th January 2020. Discounts apply
for group bookings, or if you have previously participated in a Continuing
Education Program Course on HTADS at UMIT.
