My talk on "depicting determinstic variables within DAGs" is now online. The talk explains how DAGs can be used to help with understanding & estimating causal effects involving derived variables (e.g. BMI) & compositional data (e.g. nutrition data).

Really excited to be hosting @nataliaortega.bsky.social in Leeds for the next two weeks!
I anticipate lots of conversations about the challenges of doing causal inference in nutritional data! 😂
