2017

November 30th and December 1st, 2017, at Domus Medica in Oslo, we organise a two-day Workshop on Causal Inference in Health Registry Research. The workshop will address several aspects of causal inference, including instrumental variables, time-dependent confounding and mediation analysis.

Odd O. Aalen's contributions in fundamental concepts, methods, theories and instruments to modern statistical science during his long career are highly valued. He has been a key person in establishing biostatistics as a strong research field in Norway. On the occasion of his 70th birthday, colleagues, friends, collaborators, supporters and admirers wish to celebrate Odd with a symposium in his honour. The symposium will take place on the 11th and 12th of October, 2017, at the University of Oslo.

The talks will cover current topics in survival analysis, causal inference and infectious disease modelling.
