Event details
S3RI (Southampton Statistical Sciences Research Institute) and the Wessex Institute are holding a workshop on Propensity Scores. The propensity score has become very popular in the recent two decades as it allows us to design and analyse observational study so that it mimics some of the salient features of a randomised controlled trial. This workshop will discuss these techniques as well as some associated problems.
