Anyone organizing a search should NOT use traditional methods until they read the book "An Inclusive Academy". It has reasons to alter standard practices.

@kevinmawright As a result, university administration has grown at 6% annually compared to faculty effort at 2-3%, which of course resulted in a decreasing cost-benefit for students as tuitions rose with costs, but those directly benefiting the students were not given more pay or resources.

@kevinmawright In the book, "The Fall of the Faculty", it makes the point that university admins largely decide on their own compensation, while their actions do not directly contribution to the university missions of research, teaching, clinical effort, and service.

This is wildly incorrect. PrEP for hiv prevention is 95%+ effective. Please remove this dangerous misinformation.

@ellis2013nz @jburnmurdoch @_alice_evans @RichardvReeves I don’t think this is surely a constant. The digital age has brought a large number of changes in behavioral attributes of children, and they are certainly also reflected in the brain.

@AndrewNoymer @JackieCreaTV @nbcsandiego There are positive influenza A cases reported.

Flu shots are currently available.

[Dave Blake, PhD @_stah]

@ccleighton @JackieCreaTV @nbcsandiego We have flu cases in our hospital.

Interestingly, all A, no B.

@JamesSurowiecki The team that won the World Series was always the team hot in October.

Now it is the hottest team out of 12 instead of 2, 4, or 8. While I do miss pennant races, there are today few who remember.

@jljcolorado That study shows effects and is done rigorously.

There are multiple other studies showing more meager impacts of CO2 on cognition. Or none at all.

@PPC96784706 All science can be demonstrated to be wrong at some point in the future as new data arises.

But the onus is on humankind to do the best we can with the science we have today.

@PPC96784706 Nonsense.

We SHOULD rely in part on opinions from experts, like Marsha Wills-Karp, who has an h-index of >70 and has spent her career studying the environmental contributions to the immune response.

@PPC96784706 I was paraphrasing the interview. I think a detailed understanding of the tradeoffs would be better referred to the interview, than to my summary.

@PPC96784706 Methods could perhaps be addressed by @MoriartyLab

@Ikat0 @NatureInTheory @joeyfox85 In the transient response, yes.

In steady state, no.

And that sums up the difficulty in one-size-fits all recommendations for air handling. Room volume and occupancy matter in slightly different ways and a true solution requires solving a differential equation.
