Biostatistics Seminar: Uniform Inference for Local Conditional Quantile Treatment Effect Curve with High-Dimensional Covariates

Presentation: Uniform Inference for Local Conditional Quantile Treatment Effect Curve with High-Dimensional Covariates Speaker: Jing Tao, PhD, Assistant Professor of Economics, University of Washington Abstract: This work investigates uniform inference for local conditional quantile treatment effect for observational data with high-dimensional covariates and a binary instrumental variable. Under a parametric model for the local quantile regression function, we develop Lasso estimation for a non-convex and non-smooth objective function to estimate the parameters of interest in the quantile regression function. A new algorithm based on linear programming with linear complementarity constraints is constructed to solve this optimization problem. We propose de-sparsifying estimators for pointwise and uniform inference for the coefficients of the local quantile regression function and the local conditional/heterogeneous quantile treatment effects. Moreover, we obtain uniform strong approximations of the local… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Hans Rosling Center for Population Health (HRC).

Joint UW Biostatistics/Fred Hutch Seminar: Safeguarding medically underserved populations in EHR-based research subject to informed presence bias

Presentation: Safeguarding medically underserved populations in EHR-based research subject to informed presence bias Speaker: Rebecca Hubbard, PhD, Professor of Biostatistics, University of Pennsylvania Abstract: Data are captured in electronic health records (EHRs) as a direct result of patient interactions with the healthcare system. Consequently, EHR data for patients with more healthcare utilization tend to be captured more frequently and provide more detail about the patient’s health. This connection between patterns of healthcare utilization and data quantity and quality, termed informed presence, violates the common assumption of independence between observation and outcome processes. This is particularly problematic for historically marginalized populations and other groups experiencing barriers to healthcare. Limited data availability has the potential to increase bias, imprecision and algorithmic unfairness in EHR-based research results for these medically underserved groups. In this presentation,… Event interval: Single day event. Campus room: Fred Hutch Cancer Center, Room M1-A303/305. Accessibility Contact: Deb Nelson, nelsod6@uw.edu, 206-685-9323.

Biostatistics Seminar: Test-negative designs from Influenza, Dengue and Ebola to COVID-19

Presentation: Test-negative designs from Influenza, Dengue and Ebola to COVID-19  Speaker: Nicholas Jewell, PhD, Professor of Biostatistics, University of California, Berkeley Abstract:  Test-negative designs are a relatively recent addition to observational study toolboxes, originally employed for assessment of seasonal influenza vaccination programs. I will review the rationale and development of the original test-negative design and discuss extensions to cover randomized exposures, various kinds of clustering and mixed testing programs, with illustrations from both dengue fever and Ebola virus disease. Recent interest has focused on uses of the test-negative design to estimate and compare effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines. The presentation will highlight statistical issues associated with the design, analysis, and interpretation of resulting data, with suggestions for further research.

Biostatistics Seminar: Scalable computational methods and software for single-cell and spatial data science

Presentation: Scalable computational methods and software for single-cell and spatial data science Speaker: Stephanie Hicks, PhD, Associate Professor of Biostatistics, Bloomberg School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University Abstract: Single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-seq) is the most widely used high-throughput technology to measure genome-wide gene expression at the single-cell level. However, single-cell data present unique challenges that have required the development of specialized methods and software infrastructure to successfully derive biological insights. Compared to bulk RNA-seq, there is an increased scale of the number of observations (or cells) that are measured and there is increased sparsity of the data, or fraction of observed zeros. Furthermore, as single-cell technologies mature, the increasing complexity and volume of data require fundamental changes in data access, management, and infrastructure alongside specialized methods to facilitate scalable analyses. I will discuss some challenges in… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Hans Rosling Center for Population Health (HRC).
