CCPR will host an in-person workshop, “How to do Difference-in-Differences,” with Pedro Sant’Anna.  Difference-in-Differences (DiD) is among the most popular strategies to identify causal effects in observational studies. The workshop will update you on this fast-moving literature and best practices with hands-on practice in R and Stata.

For Ph.D. students, post-docs, faculty (or anyone who would like to attend, space permitting).

Topics include:

• A deep-dive into canonical DiD methods
• Understanding limitations of linear two-way fixed effects regressions
• Allowing for heterogeneous treatment effects when treatment timing varies
• Allowing for covariate-specific trends
