Welcome to the GitHub repository accompanying a full-day workshop on Targeted
Learning and the tlverse software ecosystem, given (virtually) at the ENAR
2021 Spring Meeting on Sunday, March
14, 2021. These teaching materials are adapted from a draft of the forthcoming
book Targeted Learning in R: Causal Data Science with the tlverse Software
Ecosystem, by Mark van der Laan, Jeremy
Coyle, Nima Hejazi, Ivana Malenica, Rachael Phillips, and Alan Hubbard. The
unabridged book is freely available, and
its source materials may be found in the corresponding public GitHub
repository.
The workshop materials are automatically built and deployed using
Binder, which supports using R and
RStudio, with libraries pinned to a specific snapshot on
MRAN. An RStudio
session, pre-loaded with all the materials, is available via the "launch binder"
button on this page; however, we recommend that you install the required R
packages (e.g., via the included install.R
script)
and run all examples locally.
