Also canceling the meeting on August 1, since many people will be on vacation. Next meeting will be September 5

Today’s meeting (September 5) will be on bias and variance from adjusting for instrumental variables. This looks into one of the main objections people have to our Large-Scale Propensity Scores, so should be very informative. The discussion will be led by George.
