 12:00PM - 1:30PM EDT 

 

 Title Doubly Robust Estimators with Weak Overlap Abstract D oubly robust (DR) estimators guard against model misspecification but remain sensitive to weak covariate overlap. We show that trimming extreme propensity scores reduces variance but eliminates...

 Title Correctional Officers vs. Inmates: Who Prevents Self-Harm in Prison? Abstract Suicide is the leading cause of death in U.S. jails and the second-leading cause in prisons. Traditional prevention relies on correctional officers, but chronic staffing...

 12:00PM - 1:30PM EDT 

 

 Title Stratified Sampling for Model-Assisted Estimation with Surrogate Outcomes Abstract In many randomized trials, outcomes such as essays or open-ended responses must be manually scored before impact analysis, a process that is costly and limiting... 

 

 

   [### Issa Dahabreh (Harvard)

 ](/event/issa-dahabreh-harvard)March 11, 2026

 12:00PM - 1:30PM EDT 

 

 Title Augmenting randomized trials Abstract We present novel methods for augmenting randomized clinical trials with external data – historical experimental data or observational data – to improve trial efficiency without endangering the guaranty of... 

 

 

   [### Melody Huang (Yale)

 12:00PM - 1:30PM EST 

 

 Title Relative Bias Under Imperfect Identification in Observational Causal Inference Abstract To conduct causal inference in observational settings, researchers must rely on certain identifying assumptions. In practice, these assumptions are unlikely to... 

 

 

   [### Wenqi Shi (Harvard)

|

 12:00PM - 1:30PM EST 

 

 Title Meta-analysis through Low-Rank Basis Hunting Abstract A central challenge of meta-analysis is that the populations underlying existing studies often differ from the target population in unknown ways. We study the problem of predicting function...

 12:00PM - 1:30PM EST 

 

 Title Chiseling: Powerful and Valid Subgroup Selection via Interactive Machine Learning Abstract In regression and causal inference, controlled subgroup selection aims to identify, with inferential guarantees, a subgroup (defined as a subset of the...

 12:00PM - 1:30PM EST 

 

 Title Type I Error Inflation in Unexpected Event During Survey Designs Abstract The ‘Unexpected Event During Survey' design (UESD) leverages quasi-random timing of interviews relative to external events for causal identification. In this research note, we...
