Out today is our paper on estimating causal effects on a network! This was joint work with twitterless Eric Tchetgen Tchetgen and Ilya Shpitser.

This project occupied a significant portion of my PhD… and about 10% of my life… so enjoy!

We wanted a method to estimate causal effects in complex settings:

- The outcome of one person (1) is influenced by others’ outcomes (2) depends on others’ exposures
- Persons cannot be divided into distinct clusters (“network hairball”)
- The exposure is not randomized
