BYOD for the 1st #TidyTuesday of the year.

I chose to focus on the Africa Cup of Nations giants. Did the host nation make it to the top four?

For last week's #TidyTuesday, I created a map of endangered languages around the world. Built entirely in R/ggplot2: transforming spatial coordinates, identifying hotspots and composing multiple charts!

👀Looking into the future! 📈 Just wanted to share our patient outcome #prediction model which we presented at EULAR 2025.

We have designed a #forecasting #model that can follow a patient's swollen joint count over time and estimate if their condition will improve or worsen. (1/3)

The journal @naturemethods.bsky.social has named a new medical analysis method as the biggest scientific breakthrough in 2024. Andreas Mund of the University of Copenhagen explains how it has led to a cure for the skin disease Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis:

Breakthrough on life-threatening skin condition: To be applied to other diseases — University Post
Researchers have cured seven patients of a life-threatening skin disorder with a new method that finds defective proteins. Now they're looking at using the method on types of cancer.

Just made a #bsky account to vent about how #NotebookLM 's intro page is different for personal vs. organization users.

* Briefing is upper-case in the personal edition, but lower case for org users.
* 'org' is used instead of 'organization' in the personal edition.
