January is almost over, which means conference season planning is in full swing! If causal inference is your thing—and it should be—join us at the ACIC

The American Causal Inference Conference is coming to Salt Lake City, May 11-14, and it’d be great to see some of you there!

Explains a lot of the heat that I usually get

Paul is here making our lives 1000 times easier!!!

Thanks for this!!!

Very cool!!

But I am surprised people wrote triple difference-in-difference and not just triple differences!!

I am excited about this!!!

Congrats!!!! Your presentations was awesome!!

Can you send me slides, too???

We did not record anything…. 🥹

Maybe next time

We are very thankful to our sponsors at Stata, Google, as well as the support of Emory Goizueta Business School and

Our workshop Econometrics at Emory: Causal Inference with Panel Data is happening May 2–3, 2025!

🎯 We are thrilled to welcome Guido Imbens as our keynote speaker. But that’s just the start.

🎙️ We have a stellar lineup of speakers from both academia and industry to talk about causal inference!

Space is limited, so please register to attend.

We will review all applications and confirm: econometricsatemory.com/registration/

We look forward to seeing you at Emory!

We also work hard to get an incredible lineup of speakers from academia & industry covering the latest in causal panel data

Plus: A special Q&A on Econometrics in the Private Sector 💼

We from @emoryeconomics.bsky.social
are excited to host the "Econometrics in Emory: Causal Inference with Panel Data."

We aim to strengthen the relationship between academia and industry researchers so we all learn from each other!

My suggestion is to write everything from first principles: establish nonparametric identification given your assumptions. That will lead to guidance on what is valid or not.

Sorry for not being of kore help

No, I dont.

It depends on PT, the exact parameter of interest, and also on whethere there is treatment effect dynamics/carryover.

I dont even know how to justify a “no-anticipation” here.

A lot of papers already discuss this in great detail.

It is all about the identification assumptions and the parameters if interest of the analysis.

Hard for me to do deep dives here these days

This was a fun workshop!!!

I like Claude! 😄

Rest in peace, Ed Leamer

One of the things that I love the most is to give seminars, present new papers/results, and get feedbacks.

I haven’t been able to do that as much as before (for the sake of the kids), but I’m really excited to present tomorrow at Stanford.

If you are around, come say hi!

You are a wizard!!
