THINK LIKE AN EPIDEMIOLOGIST: why are COVID deaths *still* not going up 3 weeks after case counts started increasing? There are many possible explanations, but one I haven’t seen mentioned is the impact of widespread testing on *early detection*.

The #NSFGRFP is an incredible opportunity... so I analyzed winners from 2011-20 to understand who gets it. The good news: things are slightly worse in 2018-20, but they're stable. The bad news: "stable" means >50% of awards go to undergrads or grads at the top *20* schools.

EXCLUSIVE: White House national security officials prepared a “pandemic playbook” — a step-by-step guide to ensure testing, check on workers’ equipment, even consider the Defense Production Act.
The Trump administration ignored it. politico.com/news/2020/03/25… with @nahaltoosi

The cast of Mamma Mia pouring their hearts and souls into Waterloo one last time after finding out their last few weeks of production had to be canceled. Our spring musical is postponed until further notice but please show them some love! @LauraBenanti #SunshineSongs

One myth about supervised machine learning (or predictive modeling) is that “different algorithms work best for different (clinical) datasets” and thus you must test lots of different algos and pick the best one. Let me present the counterexample: let’s separate blue from red.

I feel like this holiday season, it's important to remind people of the true meaning of christmas: ghosts terrorizing rich people in the middle of the night until they agree to pay their employees more

Every once in a while, you come across a story so touching that it needs more than just a tweet.
This is one of them.
A thread.
[Hint: It’s about a kid, a hospital, and Canadians doing Canadian things]

Right now, in the center of the Sun, there's a nuclear reaction converting hydrogen to helium, producing neutrinos, photons, & positrons. A neutrino from this reaction will pass through you just over eight minutes from now. The photons won't arrive for at least 100,000 years.
