#OHBM2023 I have a poster on data cleaning good practices based on our experience curating the NIMH Healthy Volunteers dataset (more on this below). Stop by at poster number 2444 at poster session 3 and 4 to learn more!
Remembering S. Anitha, a brilliant Dalit student who scored 98% in her state board exams, only to have her dreams crushed when the system shifted the goalposts overnight.
She was the first victim of this oppressive and discriminative central exam system called NEET.
NEET continues to disadvantage, exclude students of state-board students and from marginalised communities.
In memory of Anitha, and for the countless rural and marginalised students fighting an unfair fight - Abolish NEET. Decentralise education.
This!
Even if a few hundred of citizens in the entire country have this clarity of thought, the country will change for the better.
These heartfelt, unfiltered thoughts are the real ammunition behind this protest!
❤️💔
This is the first resignation of a minister from the Modi regime in the last twelve years. Narendra Modi had been under tremendous pressure due to the protests. But the rot is systemic, a face saving resignation from Pradhan will not fix it. This is not accountability
Hum Yaad Rakhenge!
Listen to these 8 minutes of pure gold from Neha on the police brutality against students. The fire in her words, the conviction in her voice.
She has returned after 23 days of fasting, but nothing has dimmed her spirit.
Delhi Police is brutally beating a minor during a protest. This is not crowd control or a lathi charge, it is a brutal assault on a child.
Those responsible must be identified, investigated and held fully accountable.
A mumbai police official threatening students against been seen at the protest site or else he will plant drugs in their bags
p.s : look at these Gen Z kids. So so cool :)
THIS IS PEAK COURAGE 🔥
One fearless woman stood in front of a police can carrying detained protestors during Mumbai students protest
She refused to back down
Soon more people joined and the police had to release the protestors
What a brave lady. Huge respect 🫡

📢NEW PAPER!
Where @davidthewid, @sarahbmyers & I unpack what Open Source AI even is.
We find that the terms ‘open’ & ‘open source’ are often more marketing than technical descriptor, and that even the most 'open' systems don't alone democratize AI 1/

1. Nex Benedict matters
Nex was a 16-year-old and non-binary
Nex was brutally beaten a high school bathroom in Oklahoma
The school did not call an ambulance or the police
Instead, Nex was suspended
Nex died the next day
i love how bisan not only shares the atrocodies happening gaza, but also how these people are keeping their beautiful culture alive. in a time like this, it is so important to do so. keep the hope and palestine ALIVE!!!
Bullshit. Jews are NOT on trial. Israel IS on trial. Stop conflating Jews with Israel. If Israel’s RIGHT TO EXIST is predicated on the NON-EXISTENCE of Palestinians it can piss right off. No one is falling for your crocodile tears & weaponisation of antisemitism. Cry me a river.
Words can't describe the energy in the room at the Ann S. Bowers Women's Brain Health Initiative launch, so I'll leave the heavy lifting to this short film.
Humor can subvert, enrage, empower & educate. So take a look and then let's get to work.
