U.S. early-career researchers struggling amid chaos Uncertain funding, government firings, and distressed universities hit vulnerable groups especially hard

A whole generation of early career scientists and physician-scientists, including colleagues and myself, are particularly vulnerable to these funding freezes and cuts, with jobs and careers depending on federal grants.

That "immortal time" is so frequent in survival analyses for #causalinference is fascinating.

Because "immortal time" doesn't exist in the data, *we* create it when misanalyzing the data.

Our new paper pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39494894/ summarizes why immortal time arises & how to prevent it.
