I’m bummed that I can’t attend my amazing colleague Sarah Williams’s keynote. Her work is making impacts all over the whole, and exhibiting in museums. She is a role model through her inspiring work and personality! Follow her work at MIT civicdatadesignlab.mit.edu Civic Data Design Lab

The 11th #IC2S2 kicked off today! Highlights: Dean Eckles on making effect sizes meaningful for decisions, and Kathleen Carley on how Network Science + AI can detect and mitigate online influence — and even generate synthetic data. Inspiring to see how her work still shapes mine after 20+ years.

Read an interesting piece in Nature: applicants reviewing each other’s grants. Faster, more learning, everyone with skin in the game — and smart ways to prevent cheating. Would love to see more of this!
