This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:
“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

Brian Patterson from UW Med School talks about the landscape for AI adoption is shifting. Pre-2025 "by the use" AI pricing prompted ROI discussions. Post-2025, tools are increasingly "bundled" into platforms as vendor releases & clinician demand grow, highlighting safety and rigor. #AMIA2025 #MedSky

@kdpsingh.bsky.social focusing on the "build before you buy" mentality. A lot of the AI tools that are most useful to clinicians aren't actually commercially available, so internal teams build tools they need, like their NoteReader which can help automate measurements.

My #rstats cheat code for today is the binom.confint function in the binom package that will spit out *12* different ways of calculating a CI for a proportion.
Also, this is why you use R for statistics...
(and of course the correct CI method is bayes 😎)

What a crazy world that in 2026 it’s feasible that 10% of the Big Ten might be owned by the University of California Pension Fund and that University of Michigan might not be part of it.

Prohibited activities include advising Chinese graduate students. For reference, a recent Georgetown report estimated 16% of STEM graduate students in the US are Chinese nationals.
This would take out entire fields at the knees, which is perhaps the point.

“The prohibited activities would include joint research, co-authorship on papers, and advising a foreign graduate student or postdoctoral fellow. The language is retroactive, meaning any interactions during the previous 5 years could make a scientist ineligible for future federal funding.”

When Damon Landor, a Rastafarian with dreadlocks, showed a prison guard a court ruling protecting his right to keep his hair, the guard threw it away. Despite his pleas, officers restrained him and cut his hair.
Now, he's going to the Supreme Court.

The question is not whether Damon Landor was mistreated but whether he can sue the individual prison officials and guards for damages.
