Very nice interview with @dingdingpeng.the100.ci on methodological challenges in causal inference and in a clear act of economic blasphemy, she also dares to emphasize measurement problems—and even highlights the relevance of qualitative methods to improve quant surveys!
The Causal Bandits episode with me is finally up! We talked about a hodge-podge of causal inference and methods issues. I already got one positive testimonial from my boss who listened to the first half and liked it!

Can we estimate spatial-temporal exposure to traffic-related Particulate Matter (PM) emissions?
Yes we can using #microsimulations & we did it for #Vienna with support from the #Klimafonds #ACRP project #SIMSAEV. joint work between #WU #AIT #IIASA #WIFO
