The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (@EORTC) endorses #TargetTrial emulation with #RWD.

An organization with unmatched expertise in the design of #randomizedtrials embraces their explicit emulation when using observational data.

My #introduction:

I repurpose observational #RealWorldData into scientific evidence for the prevention and treatment of human disease. At #CAUSALab, we often do so by explicitly emulating a #TargetTrial. Other times we analyze #RandomizedTrials.

I teach #causalinference methods at the #Harvard T.H. Chan School of #PublicHealth. My online course #CausalDiagrams and “Causal Inference" #WhatIfBook (with James Robins) are free. See my profile.
