Thank you to Mona Kanaan (UoYork, UK) for asking me to present in the panel

"From study to target populations: Addressing #ExternalValidity through the lens of Transportability and Generalisability"
(1:50pm, #MedicalStatistics)

I'll present on #MeasurementInvariance 😊

🥁 Reweighting a trial for #ExternalValidity, the target average treatment is best estimated with covariates = treatment effect modifiers (shifted or not)

Covariates that are shifted between the 2 samples but not treatment effect modifiers increase the variance while non-shifted but treatment effect modifiers do not
