Dear @AmazonAustralia can you please stop recommending me to buy products I've already purchased from you! Thank you :)

Every week, I along with other researchers/modelers gather in a conference call to discuss the current state of forecasting, give presentations, and share ideas.

One group always absent? IHME.

They are not representative of the scientific community.

The latest @Sydney_Uni #COVID19 data shows that Australia could soon reach the pandemic peak.

If 90% of the population adopt social distancing, the spread of #coronavirus could be controlled by July.

Regardless of your profession, one of the most important steps to becoming a better decision maker is knowing how to quantify uncertainty - @ctds_unisyd's @RomanMarchant explains how #data can be used for good, and to answer complex social questions 👉https://t.co/yeOSYcWMMx

Things here have been, well, a bit crazy in recent months. But it's raining now and the fires are out, and what better time to announce a fantastic 4 year postdoc to join the HMI project.

This hits home as someone who grew up in rural Idaho (largest town in the county with < 4,000 people) and is a #dataprivacy #datascientist. Unfortunately, utility and privacy are at odds with one another, and small populations are very hard to protect.
