Towards Regulatory-Grade Causal Inference from Observational Data

This 2-day, in-person course introduces the target trial framework to assess comparative effectiveness and safety using healthcare databases. The course presents practical use cases that apply the target trial framework for regulatory and research purposes and has protected time to address participants’ questions about the design of their own observational analyses. Before the course starts, participants are encouraged to submit questions about their own target trial emulations to be discussed during the course.
