DESCRIPTION:Qingyuan Zhao will lead a group discussion about competing eve
 nts which make it impossible for an event of interest to occur. For instan
 ce\, if we are interested to what extent a new drug reduces the risk of dy
 ing from cancer\, death by a cardiovascular disease or a car accident woul
 d be competing events. These frequently occur in (longitudinal) clinical t
 rials and complicate the definition of a causal effect and its interpretat
 ion.\nIf you'd like to prepare for the group discussion\, we'd recommend t
 o read \n"Stensrud et al. (2020)":https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.
