This $350,000 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support the development of new theory and methods for assessing the sensitivity of causal inferences to violations of underlying assumptions in quasi-experimental research designs. The research project aims to create a comprehensive suite of sensitivity analysis tools for popular causal inference techniques such as instrumental variables,...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $281,469 will fund research at the University of Colorado Denver from August 2022 through July 2025 to advance causal inference methods for heterogeneous data fusion. Specifically, the award will support developing new approaches to empirically estimate associations and perform causal inference when individual-level data cannot be obtained due to privacy or logistical constraints. The research aims to extend statistical methodologies to...
The National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program has awarded the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) a $319,541 project grant for "Collaborative Research: Causal Structures: Experiments and Machine Learning." This 3-year research project aims to understand how economic agents develop subjective causal models and narratives to interpret information and make decisions. The researchers will conduct a series of experiments to...
This $616,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Computing and Communication Foundations, under the CFDA program "Computer and Information Science and Engineering", supports research at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to address algorithmic and information-theoretic challenges in causal inference.

The National Science Foundation Division of Information and Intelligent Systems awarded a $399,923 project grant to The Johns Hopkins University from September 2021 through August 2024. This funding supports research titled "CAUSAL AND SEMI-PARAMETRIC INFERENCE FOR EXPLANATIONS OF DISPARITIES AND DISPARITY-CORRECTING MODELING" under the NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070). The goal of this project grant is to advance the development of causal...

This three-year project grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program will provide $273,587 to develop model-based and design-based approaches to longitudinal causal decomposition analysis. Led by researchers at the University of California, Riverside, the project aims to identify modifiable risk factors contributing to social disparities. Methodological guidance, an R package, sample code, and video tutorials will be created to help researchers leverage longitudinal data and sequential randomized experimental designs for causal analysis. Graduate students will receive mentoring, and an undergraduate course on quantitative causal reasoning will be established at a minority-serving institution. The project seeks to advance current methods by considering time-varying mediators and outcomes to provide insight into optimal intervention timing for reducing disparities. Experimental designs incorporating hypothetical and tested interventions are also part of the framework under development.
