@EhsaanA99918076 @SpotifyResearch I’ll have to double check with HR, but I think the role is specifically based out of the London office. Which means you’ll have to be in the office for at least a day or two per week.

P.S.: Exciting for me as an ex-econometrician, this project also meant I finally got to learn what‘s behind all that ✨ synthetic control magic ✨🕵🏼‍♀️ My lukewarm (?) take: no magic, just some linearity assumptions* doing v heavy lifting in the background 🫢

Economists seem to LOVE synthetic control methods, so during my MSR internship with @javiergonzh we wanted to understand whether we could use them for survival analyses (v prevalent in medicine) too? Delighted that our answer (“It’s complicated!”) was accepted @Conf_CLeaR… 1/n

@AliciaCurth That would be very cool to find out. Would be interesting to see if a toy example exists where it works.

@quantumciaran Thank you! I mainly looked at linear aggregation in my paper on survival SCs, I wonder if this means that there’d always be non-linear functions of the control outcomes for which SC would work in the survival setting! (Main diff is that I have only one time-step tho) Interesting!
