Thanks to @fnr.lu for supporting @spilleron.bsky.social with this #RESCOMLectureSeries on #CausalInferenceMethodsForRealWorldData, a valuable step toward integrating real-world data and causal inference into Luxembourg’s research landscape! 3/3🧵

As @spilleron.bsky.social , @paulineduquenne.bsky.social and I showed Peter around the @uni.lu Campus, we had interesting discussions about the challenges & opportunities for epidemiology in our small but multicultural country. Hope this won’t be the last time we cross paths in Luxembourg! 2/3🧵

It was a real pleasure to welcome Dr. @pwgtennant.bsky.social to Luxembourg 🇱🇺!
He gave an inspiring talk on causal inference, and his contagious enthusiasm sparked a genuine interest in applying these methods in Luxembourg. 1/3🧵

Confounding by Indication: A Research Bias You Should Know It’s September which means RFK Jr will soon be releasing his promised report on the ‘causes’ of autism. We can prepare by learning some key types of research bias.

RFK Jr has promised to release a report on the causes of autism in September. To prepare, it's a good idea to make sure we know what the common types of observational research biases are. First up: confounding by indication.

#CausalIntroCourse

Definitely!

Thank you for your input 👍

Let's think this through. I'll draw a DAG, seek diverse input and feedback, and come back to this post. Do you have anything in mind?

#CausalIntroCourse

@spilleron.bsky.social a good example for the journal club 😆

Before #CausalInferenceIntro:
"Hmm, this association looks unusual" 🤔

After #CausalInferenceIntro:
"Have you considered the possibility of collider bias?" 🤓

My favourite part of the #CausalIntroCourse!

@pwgtennant.bsky.social pushed us right over the causal cliff! 😆

#CausalIntroCourse Day 3

Ready for #CausalIntroCourse Day 2.
Today's menu: DAGs and Propensity Scores

Thank you @spilleron.bsky.social for the tip :)

Two years ago: World Parkinson's Conference ➡️ Today: Start of the Introduction to causal inference course with @pwgtennant.bsky.social in Leeds #CausalIntroCourse

2🧵: 🚨 Why does this happen? We still need more research to understand the reasons behind these differences. But one thing is clear: healthcare and research need to consider these gender differences to improve care for everyone affected by Parkinson's.

1🧵: Through an in-depth analysis of 802 individuals, we found that women tend to have a slower progression of memory loss, sleep issues, walking difficulties, balance problems, and motor symptoms.

🧠 Parkinson’s: Not Just Frequency, But Progression Too
Did you know that Parkinson's disease is 1.4 times more common in men than women? But that’s not the whole story—men also experience a faster worsening of symptoms compared to women.🧵
