* Welcome

The purpose of this workshop is to gather researchers of REDDIE WP4
who are interested in emulating a diabetes target trial in register
data. Specifically, we will work with an augmented version of the
R-package =ltmle=. 

The meeting is organized as a mixture of 20 minute talks, a lot of
time for discussion, and hands-on programming in R. 

* Venue

University of Copenhagen
