Draft | Supplement | Slides | [arXiv] | Video
I propose an experimental design for inference on and estimation of policies under network interference.
Field implementation (AEA Registry) : Bundling Weather Forecasts and Agronomic Advisory for Farmers in Pakistan (with J. Rudder and Precision Development)
Draft | Supplement | Slides | Replication code | Notes | [arXiv]
I design and study targeted treatments using data from existing experiments or observational studies in the presence of spillovers.
[arXiv] (alphabetical first author ordering)
We propose an economic framework to explain when, how, and why multiple hypothesis testing adjustments should be done differently.

We study inference on time-varying treatments with panel data in the presence of high-dimensional covariates and (unknown) dynamic selection into treatment.
[arXiv] | Replication code
I propose a statistical framework for two-stage experimental designs under interference, with a focus on precise inference on treatment and spillover effects.
We study when and how researchers should design clusters in experiments with network spillovers.
We study identification and inference in panel data settings with unobserved confounders.

We study estimation and inference with machine-learning estimators in the context of synthetic controls.
