🧠 BEMC Talk | Aaron Sarvet (University of Massachusetts Amherst) | November 19, 2025

Join the next BEMC Talk on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, at 4:00 PM (CET) — a hybrid event featuring Aaron Sarvet from the University of Massachusetts Amherst (USA). He will speak on
🎓 “Interpretational errors in causal inference and how to avoid them.”

In his talk, Sarvet explores how subtle misinterpretations — termed “identity slippage” — can distort causal inference and affect public health and clinical decision-making. He will present case studies from causal mediation and instrumental variable analysis, illustrating how recognizing such errors improves the translation of data into public good.
