Course Description

Overview

Dive into a comprehensive video series on causal inference through Duke University's Causal Inference Bootcamp. Explore key concepts including controlled and randomized experiments, the Oregon Health Experiment, noncompliance issues, and interpreting treatment effects. Examine real-world case studies like the Perry Preschool Project and its long-term impacts on education and crime. Learn about statistical inference, experiment design challenges, and natural experiments. Investigate historical examples such as the London Cholera Outbreak and its role in data visualization. Gain insights into analyzing missing data, addressing spillover effects, and understanding the complexities of policy manipulation in natural experiments. Enhance your understanding of causal inference methodologies and their applications in social science research through this in-depth, 2.5-hour educational journey.
