Advanced Workshop on Propensity Scores for Pharmacoepidemiologists

Join us for a comprehensive 2-day workshop on propensity scores, tailored specifically for relatively experienced pharmacoepidemiologists seeking to enhance their expertise in this critical methodological area. Led by Prof. R.W. Platt (McGill University) and Dr. Thomas Debray (SDAS, Netherlands), this workshop offers a deep dive into the principles, applications, and advanced techniques of propensity score methods in pharmacoepidemiologic research. Through a combination of interactive lectures and hands-on exercises, participants will learn to apply propensity scores to mitigate confounding in observational studies, evaluate treatment effects, and assess real-world evidence. The workshop emphasizes practical implementation using statistical software, providing participants with ready-to-use workflows and tools to incorporate into their research.
Case Studies
Key topics include:
  • Fundamentals of propensity score methods
  • Advanced matching, stratification, and weighting techniques
  • Addressing common pitfalls and challenges
  • Interpretation and reporting of results in pharmacoepidemiologic studies

Participants will leave with enhanced methodological confidence and practical resources to improve the rigor and transparency of their research. Whether you're refining your analytical skills or exploring new ways to address confounding, this workshop is designed to meet your needs and advance your understanding of propensity scores.
