Lena Janys is an Econometrician, focusing on theoretical and applied Microeconometrics, especially for applications in health economics. Her work is both within non- and semiparametric duration models [1] and bandwidth selection [2], and in testing for treatment effects in the case of multiple outcomes/subgroup analysis using the group-sparse Lasso. Additionally, she works on applying state-of-the-art methods to correctly estimate the impact of health behaviours on mortality.
Her future research plans include further development of semiparametric duration models [1] by including unobserved heterogeneity and accounting for familial dependence in the form of shared and correlated frailties. In the area of treatment effects for multiple outcomes, she plans to focus on practical strategies for inference on the post- model selection samples. This is especially important for applied researchers who are interested in the coefficient size and standard errors and are not satisfied with merely selecting those outcomes for which the treatment is significant.
