Christine Winther Bang, postdoc
Christine started working as a postdoc at the Section for Statistics and Probability Theory on 1 January 2025. She will be working with Niels Richard Hansen in the Copenhagen Causality Lab.
Christine has a B.Sc. in Mathematics-Economics and a M.Sc. in Statistics, both from this department.
She was studying for her PhD at the University of Bremen and the Leibniz Institute for Prevention Research and Epidemiology - BIPS in Bremen. Her research was concerned with causal discovery for time-structured data with a focus on how knowledge of partial causal orderings can improve causal discovery. Her thesis is entitled “Constraint-based causal discovery with tiered background knowledge” and she was supervised by Vanessa Didelez.
Christine’s research interests include graphical models, causal inference, and causal discovery. The work in her PhD was motivated by the need to develop methods adapted to cohort data, and she is particularly excited about developing theory and methods that can solve real-world problems in practice.
