Tell me if you’ve heard this one before.

A Navy SEAL, a doctor, and an astronaut walk into a bar.

They’re all the same guy.

Excited to share our work using phages to identify bacterial pathogens in sepsis. Because phages are highly specific for their bacterial hosts, they offer strain-level resolution that could enhance cell free DNA diagnostics

We can track epidemic transmissibility using cases, deaths, hospitalisations or even wastewater surveys. But which data are best for estimating Rt? Can we measure the differing impact of noise within each data? In https://t.co/XHuCzYPzlY @NatComputSci we tackle these problems

IMO if propofol is your most common induction agent in the ICU, you are inducing people wrong.

I'm a doctor who does research.
I've annoyed DOZENS of statisticians.
Here are 5 proven ways to exasperate them.
