This was so cool to be a part of, from a letter to the editor with @RogawskiMcQuade to a full study led by our mutual connection @KayokoShioda, it was research collaboration the way it’s supposed to happen.

Drs. @SaraLevintow, @BreskinEpi, & colleagues find that negative control outcome studies can strengthen the design & be a helpful tool in assessing the threat of confounding, a chief concern in healthcare database research onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pd…
Happy to share that our recent publication "Controlling for Differential Regression-To-The-Mean via Propensity Scores: A Simulation Study" is now available at @ClinEpidem ! dovepress.com/articles.php?a…
Webster-Clark and @BreskinEpi explain how to identify what variables can and cannot be effect measure modifiers using simple DAG rules ➡️ doi.org/10.1093/aje/kw… @AmJEpi #ThrowbackThursday
Fusion study designs harness the power of data combining. Cole et al. (2022) demonstrate.💡 It's not physics, it's @AmJEpi! doi.org/10.1093/aje/kw… @edwardsjk @BreskinEpi @PausalZ
🚨🚨 New Research Incoming 🚨🚨 What does Medicaid churn & coverage look like for women who give birth on Medicaid in a non-Expansion state? We (@rushinacholera @SudhaRaman8 @BreskinEpi @DrCharleneWong ) asked this in work funded by @KateBReynolds 1/6 ajogmfm.org/article/S2589-…
"DAG With Omitted Objects Displayed (DAGWOOD)" is out in Annals of Epi! What is DAGWOOD? A framework? A method for revealing and reviewing causal inference model assumptions? A tool for model building? A statement on epistemic humility? Answer: Yes. doi.org/10.1016/j.anne…
Noah tweeted this idea as a joke YEARS ago, and me and a couple of others jokingly said “hey, we should actually write that.” What followed was the strangest publication journey I’ve been involved in thus far.

Come join the amazing epidemiology team @NoviSci @TargetRWE! We use innovative study designs, analytic methods, and technologies to conduct high-impact studies. It’s a great place to work and the people are awesome. workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/default…
In a new blog post from #TargetRWE's @NoviSci, Director of Statistics @BreskinEpi explains how thinking in terms of dynamic treatment protocols can connect the dots between the many #StudyDesigns & #Analytic methods in #Pharmacoepidemiology. Read more 👉 buff.ly/2ZzVDo2
A @NobelPrize for #causalinference from observational data. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awards the "Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel" to David Card, Josh Angrist (@metrics52), and @guido_imbens. Congrats! nobelprize.org/prizes/economi…
This point is so important, and I think is one of the biggest contributions of 'modern' methods work.

Yes! Competing risks don't have to be confusing or complicated. If there was no late-entry or censoring, most people would instinctively know what they want to know and how to estimate it.

@prisonrodeo I don't necessarily disagree with this statement, but I think the more important question is: can you do useful (even great!) work without knowing the default-loaded R packages? In my experience the answer is clearly yes
Fusion study designs harness the power of data combining. Cole et al. (2022) demonstrate.💡 It's not physics, it's @AmJEpi! doi.org/10.1093/aje/kw… @edwardsjk @BreskinEpi @PausalZ
😍😍😍 So grateful for DAGWOOD framework (& R package!) for auto-generating alternative causal graphs for sensitivity analysis! So excited to share with my causal inf students this spring! Thanks for this amazing work! @NoahHaber, @anecdatally , @SarahWieten, @BreskinEpi
"DAG With Omitted Objects Displayed (DAGWOOD)" is out in Annals of Epi! What is DAGWOOD? A framework? A method for revealing and reviewing causal inference model assumptions? A tool for model building? A statement on epistemic humility? Answer: Yes. doi.org/10.1016/j.anne…
HOLY SHIT IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!! Will do a mega thread explainer at some point in the near future, since a fair bit changed from the last version. arxiv.org/abs/2004.04251 @anecdatally @SarahWieten @BreskinEpi
How to choose my favorite phase of this project? Maybe that week in 4th March 2020 when we thought we had accidentally re-invented the FCI algorithm?

But bumpy road to publication aside, this was an incredible project to work on, not least due to the dream team of co-authors.
Academic twitter, what advice do you have for a desk reject following re-submission based on 2 very glowing reviews? Worth querying or should we just start over somewhere new?
In a new blog post from #TargetRWE's @NoviSci, Director of Statistics @BreskinEpi explains how thinking in terms of dynamic treatment protocols can connect the dots between the many #StudyDesigns & #Analytic methods in #Pharmacoepidemiology. Read more 👉 buff.ly/2ZzVDo2
A @NobelPrize for #causalinference from observational data. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awards the "Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel" to David Card, Josh Angrist (@metrics52), and @guido_imbens. Congrats! nobelprize.org/prizes/economi…
What's the total public health impact of longer intervals between vaccine doses? We need better epi and I know @Alicia_Kraay might have some ideas. Thanks for writing this with me @BreskinEpi thelancet.com/journals/lance…
@EpiDancer IDK how much they help with anything but i have found commentaries to be a useful place to introduce, name, or refine concepts which otherwise might be hard to publish on. Like this one, where @BreskinEpi & I defined the WACE👇🏼 academic.oup.com/ije/article/49…
Today I ate a bowl of cereal and six slices of pizza, a new personal achievement! (We happened to have the same thing for dinner as I'd already eaten for lunch.)
