About me

  • I am an Associate Professor in Epidemiology and Causal Inference at ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡. The primary long-term goal of my research is to understand how to best use observational data to address questions on interventions that aim to prevent or treat disease. This encompasses developing, refining, and implementing novel causal inference approaches, like the target trial framework. I am is also interested in understanding how we can use observational data to complement inferences made in randomized trials i.e., via benchmarking or transportability analyses.
