Impact of supervisors' research style on young biomedical scientists' capacity development as measured by REDi, a novel index of crossdisciplinarity [PDF]
Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics, 2022 The challenge for medical schools in Japan is to develop research activities for innovation. This study aimed at analyzing the connection between the research output of “promising researchers” (next-generation leaders in terms of research activity) and ...

Identification of causal intervention effects under contagion
Journal of Causal Inference, 2021 Defining and identifying causal intervention effects for transmissible infectious disease outcomes is challenging because a treatment – such as a vaccine – given to one individual may affect the infection outcomes of others. Epidemiologists have proposed

Attributable fraction and related measures: Conceptual relations in the counterfactual framework
Journal of Causal Inference, 2023 The attributable fraction (population) has attracted much attention from a theoretical perspective and has been used extensively to assess the impact of potential health interventions. However, despite its extensive use, there is much confusion about its
