    (1/10) Happy to announce that my paper with is officially out on JRSS-B! () In this paper, we develop new sensitivity analyses tools to precisely quantify how strong confounders need to be to overturn your research conclusions.

    Hey people managers! Here's a free, practical tip for making your organization more inclusive. It's one of the easiest and most cost effective ways to increase representation of senior level underestimated folk, and improve retention. It has to do with "Stretch Opportunities."

    Check out a new study into how the uncertainty of models degrade with increasing dataset shift. Do the models become increasingly uncertain or do they become confidently incorrect? Learn all about it below!

    Our variable importance paper is out in JMLR!! Often, many prediction models achieve high accuracy. A variable could be important to some models, but not others. We study how important a variable could be to *any* model (in a pre-specified class). (1/6)

    Any examples of using Superlearner with DML or other semi-parametric methods besides TMLE, and likewise, people using TMLE with other ML nuisance parameter estimators? Curious how much of accuracy of the combo can be attributed to one vs other.

    My research group (located at Cornell Tech campus in NYC) is looking to recruit a postdoc to work on topics related to causal inference, fairness in ML, and sequential decision making (bandits+RL). Positions are renewable (1-2 years). Please retweet to spread the word. 🙏

    In the works since...2015? 2016?...We built a new algorithm to infer continental genetic ancestry from off-target NGS reads @ 1e-4 coverage, and used it to show that carrier testing guidelines based on self-reported ethnicity are miscalibrated.
