We are delighted to announce our newly created seminar series, the Amsterdam Causality Meeting. The aim of the seminar series is to bring together researchers in causal inference from the VU, UvA, Amsterdam UMC and CWI, but it is open to everyone. We plan to organize four events per year, where each event consists of two scientific talks and a networking event with drinks afterwards, rotating across the different institutions in Amsterdam.

We will inaugurate our seminar series with a first event on Oct 9 at UvA SP, here are the details:
