Our new paper Biostatistics is out: Causal inference for semi-competing risks data 📄: doi.org/10.1093/biosta… Joint work with Malka Gorfine #stattwitter #causaltwitter Short thread about the paper👇 1/10

אז יש שוב דיבור על התקצרות משך האשפוז האמת, זה עלה כבר כמה פעמים במהלך השנתיים האחרונות, לרוב בתחילת גל אולי זה באמת המצב, מודה שאני לא יודע ולא חשוף לנתונים אבל הנה🧵קצר למה זה לא כל כך פשוט לשערך את זה מתוך הנתונים ולמה חשוב להשתמש במודלים יעודיים (אנליזת השרדות)

This work started out as a course project for an awesome survival analysis course taught by Malka Gorfine at Tel Aviv University this year. Ayya Keshet and I enjoyed building this with Malka and hope that sharing this package might help others. Enjoy hrossman.github.io/pymsm/ 6/n

A new #Python package & a #preprint is out! 📢 PyDTS: a Python Package for Discrete-Time Survival Analysis with Competing Risks Joint work with Rom Gutman (Technion Israel) and Malka Gorfine (Tel Aviv University) Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2204.05731 PyDTS: tomer1812.github.io/pydts/ 1/n

Very happy to finally have this pre-print out about a new causal effect for competing risks, tailored for cancer subtype studies we've been working on. Led by Amit Sasson, check out her thread 👇

Achievement unlocked: at a conference today, a speaker I don't know mentioned my first published paper in his slides and said that he based his result on my proof technique. I wasn't even aware I had a technique!

Listening to an inspiring talk by Daniel Nevo at the AI and Big Data in Medical and Public Health Sciences conference, in Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, presenting how can we utilize Causal Analysis for real world healthcare issues

Happy to see PyMSM, our Python package, published as a paper via JOSS 📜🥳 joss.theoj.org/papers/10.2110… With Ayya Keshet Malka Gorfine

Working with survival data? Check out our new python package, which was recently published at JOSS. Together with Hagai Rossman and Malka Gorfine , we developed the first python package which allows users to fit multi-state models with competing risks to survival data.

Our new paper, led by Yaki Saciuk, is out in Nature Communications! nature.com/articles/s4146… We leverage allergy to penicillin as an instrumental variable, and verify it with negative control outcomes, to get causal estimates of antibiotic use on future resistance.
