Designing Field Experiments to Integrate Research on Costs

Field Experiments in Strategy Research

Field Experiments in Strategy Research Strategy research often aims to empirically establish a causal relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable such as firm performance. For many important strategy research questions, however, traditional empirical techniques are not sufficient to establish causal effects with high confidence. We propose that field experiments have p...

Lectures on Designing Screening Experiments

Preface Designing Screening Experiments (DSE) is a class of information-theoretical models for multiple-access channels (MAC). In Sect. 2-4, we discuss the combinatorial model of DSE called a disjunct channel model. This model is the most important for applications and closely connected with the superimposed code concept. In Sect. 2, we give a detailed survey of lower and upper bounds on the ra...

Time to integrate clinical and research informatics.

Integration of clinical and research informatics can streamline clinical research, patient care, and the building of a learning health care system.

Molecular biology: designing experiments to test theory

In class, we described the role of activators and repressors (transcription factors) as the molecular agents that tune the level of gene expression, either by inhibiting the ability of RNA polymerase to bind the promoter (repressors) or recruiting the polymerase to the promoter (activator). Your homework last week examined how to turn the cartoon-level models that represent these processes into...
