Causality has long been an important topic in various disciplines including computer science, economics, the social sciences, epidemiology, and philosophy. In recent years, interest has also grown in the business sector with both experimental (such as A/B testing, reinforcement learning, business experimentation) and observational causal inference methods (such causal discovery, root-cause analysis, quasi-experimental methods) being increasingly applied by practitioners.
Ever since its launch, the Causal Data Science Meeting has been at the forefront of this development, connecting a global audience of causality experts from academia and industry. We are excited to announce this year's Causal Data Science Meeting, which will take place as a two-day virtual conference on November 5-6, 2024. The event will focus on the newest methodological advances, practical aspects, and organizational challenges related to the adoption of causal machine learning tools. It will feature invited talks and presentations of accepted proposals.
Workshop Date:
November 5–6
Submission Deadline:
September 29
Acceptance Notification:

Professor Susan Athey is The Economics of Technology Professor at Stanford Graduate School of Business. She received her bachelor’s degree from Duke University and her PhD from Stanford, and she holds an honorary doctorate from Duke University. She previously taught at the economics departments at MIT, Stanford, and Harvard. She is an elected member of the National Academy of Science and is the recipient of the John Bates Clark Medal, awarded by the American Economics Association to the economist under 40 who has made the greatest contributions to thought and knowledge.
Her research is in the areas of the economics of digitization, marketplace design, and the intersection of machine learning and econometrics. She has studied a range of application areas, including timber auctions, online advertising, the news media, and the application of technology for social impact.
We are very happy to welcome Professor Athey to her keynote on November 5.
Explore cutting-edge methodologies and engage in discussions about the role and impact of causality in machine learning.
Bridge the gap between theory and practice by exploring real-world applications of causal data science.
Understand the role of causality for fairness, robustness, and discrimination in policy-making.

The Causal Data Science Meeting was founded in 2020 and thought as as a small-scale workshop for 50 attendees. However, already in its first year, CDSM received an overwhelming response of 900 pre-registrations, which encouraged us to continue the event annually. We aim to create a friendly, efficient, and constructive environment for academics and practitioners to exchange ideas on all causality-related topics in data science and machine learning. We strive to maintain transparency in our non-profit goal and use all sponsorships received to cover smaller expenses and PhD research.
