My textbook with Kosuke Imai (@Harvard) is finally out! Assuming no prior knowledge of statistics or coding and only minimal knowledge of math, DSS teaches the fundamentals of survey research, predictive models, and causal inference + how to analyze real-world data with R. 🧵..

Today I had a good call with @GLandsbergis to discuss how to tackle challenges posed by China to Lithuania's and the world's economy. We take the issue of economic coercion very seriously and hope we can work together with the EU under the #TTC to address these issues.
