Hello All,
As a biostatistician, I find causal inference theory and the movement toward allowing well designed observational studies to have causal interpretations fascinating (for example see: Dahabreh IJ, Bibbins-Domingo K. Causal Inference About the Effects of Interventions From Observational Studies in Medical Journals. JAMA. 2024 May 9. doi: 10.1001/jama.2024.7741.). I am sure many of you, like me, have used analysis methods common to causal inference such as propensity scores. Does anyone in this group directly apply causal inference methodology and framework such as target trial emulation in your work? If so, do you have experience applying these methods for drugs or devices in a regulated environment? If so and willing, I would love to hear your experience and discuss further!
Best,
Derek
