I am a Phd student at Karolinska Institutet, Department of medical epidemiology and biostatistics. The topic of my PhD is methodological developments of the attributable fraction. My first project have been to implement a R package which unifies methods for estimating the model-based attributable fraction for the study desigs: cross-sectional, case-control and cohort (with time-to-event outcomes). In my talk I will give an introduction to the attributable fraction and show examples in how to estimate the attributable fraction for different sampling designs using my package "AF".
