Addressing Bias in Causal Effects Estimated Under Mis Specified Interference Sets, with Application to HIV Prevention Trials
The identification and estimation of causal effects in the presence of interference relies on assumptions about, and correct measurement of, interference sets within which one individual's exposure may influence another one’s outcome. It can be challenging to properly specify interference sets, and when misspecified or mismeasured, intervention effects estimated by usual approaches will typically be biased. To address this bias, we propose several bias-correction methods developed under various study designs and estimators. We illustrate our methods in the analysis of HIV prevention trials, where social and sexual networks play a critical role in disease transmission.

Using Qualitative Thematic Analysis to Explore Financial Donor and Recipient Collaboration in Liberia
Speaker: Brigid Cakouros, DrPh, MPH
Friday October 20th, 2023
Description: This seminar discusses how she and her team conducted a qualitative analysis of how donors and recipients of global health funding discuss what collaboration looks like within this landscape of Liberia. The analysis consisted of two phases, the first phase sought to map the simple causal loop of who holds funding power in Liberia, and the second phase explored the underlying dynamics that perpetuated unequitable collaboration practices.

Use PEDALs Model to Pedal for Implementation Research
The presentation introduced PEDALs – a simple model to guide implementation research. According to PEDALs, implementation research starts by identifying a “Problem” in your clinical or public health work, which then leads to the search for an “Evidence-based practice” (EBP) to address that “Problem.”
