A special, interdisciplinary, international Symposium on Causality will be organized by the Department of Statistics, Computer Sciences and Applications of the University of Florence in collaboration with the Harvard Data Science Initiative, the European University Institute, and other stakeholders.
The Symposium on Causality will be hosted at the Museo Galileo.
The event will be one of several planned to celebrate the centenary of the University of Florence.
The Symposium will be a collection of contributions on the state of the art and future challenges in causality and causal inference for the new era of Data Science.
We are planning four keynote lectures (Guido Imbens, Elizabeth Stuart, Mihaela van der Schaar, Alessandro De Angelis) on the field’s past, present and future from different perspectives and disciplines, plus four roundtables on hot topics in causality and causal inference with experts from academia and the industry.
Attendance is online only, online streaming is free of charge upon advanced registration here:
