Scott Cunningham, Mixtape Sessions

Advanced Difference-in-Differences Workshop. September 1st
Full Schedule: https://www.mixtapesessions.io/session/advanced_did_sept1

Workshop description:This one-day workshop will cover advanced topics from the recent difference-in-differences literature. One question of particular focus will be, &quot;what should I do if I&#x27;m not 100% sure about the validity of the parallel trends assumption?&quot; We will cover a variety of relaxations to the parallel trends assumption, and new tools for power calculations and sensitivity analysis. The workshop will focus not just on the theory, but also on practical implementation in statistical software such as R and Stata. This is one of our advanced courses. These courses are designed assuming a solid foundation in the basics of the difference-in-differences methodology and will cover the frontiers of the topic.

The goal of the workshop is for students to gain enough knowledge from the lectures and experience from the programming activities that they become confident and capable enough to implement and interpret these methods in their own work, as well as continue to learn this new material on their own after the workshop concludes. Each day lasts 7 hours with lectures, &quot;coding together” sessions, with breaks and a lunch break. About the instructor:Jonathan Roth is an assistant professor in the economics department at Brown University. His primary research interests are in econometrics, with a focus on causal inference.
