Camilo has just defended his dissertation and is headed to the Central Bank of Colombia to work as a researcher there. Congratulations, Camilo!<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for lectures 6 to 8 over the next few weeks, which will cover nonstandard dependent variables (Lecture 6) and various tricks of the trade (Lectures 7 and 8). The real payoff, for most readers of this blog, I suspect, will be in those last two lectures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is the fifth\u00a0of eight lectures I gave at the University of Copenhagen in May for a course title Causal Inference with Observational Data.
