Case Studies

I worked on large medical datasets to answer causal questions related to epidemiological determinants of disease through complex exposures. Challenges included selection bias, confounding, and missing data. I successfully developed a strategy that gave researchers confidence in their results.
I’ve worked with R&D scientists who were simultaneously running multiple experiments to answer important questions about their cutting-edge products that would have a direct impact on various stakeholders. My role was to help in designing and analyzing the experiments, balancing the conceptual purity of the Design of Experiments theory (DoE) with pragmatic concerns relating to costs and timeline. Most of this work is sealed behind a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) which prevents me from elaborating more.

Don’t Just Take My Word For It…

The positive experiences of my happy collaborators showcased through their glowing testimonials, serve as powerful proof of trustworthiness and the impact of the results I deliver. These testimonials offer real-life examples of how I’ve helped research projects succeed. Here are some of their thoughts:

Justin Belair - Causal Inference Expert

My Statistics and Causal Inference Expertise

As a university-level statistics lecturer with a substantial LinkedIn following, scientists from all over the world come to me for my unique combination of academic excellence and practical experience in statistics and causal inference.

I’ve applied causal inference methods in varied settings in both academia and industry: in biomedical sciences such as nephrology, immunology, neuroscience, virology, occupational therapy, epidemiology, dermatology, psychiatry, and oncology; in natural sciences such as agronomy, ecology, and zoology; and social sciences such as communication, and psychology. The list keeps on growing!

I am currently writing an advanced textbook that I hope will give a young generation of academic and industry researches the tools needed to grapple with the complexities of causal inference, and maybe even develop a passion for the subject!
