@worlduniranking Why is it that in America, I get a blank look if I reply that I studied at Imperial? ETH, UCL & the other stellar EU universities similarly unknown, even by postgrad US students who are exceptionally well informed about US university rankings 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Tempest van Schaik PhD @Dr_Tempest]

@siminyu_kat @techreview Well deserved recognition for an extraordinary person!

"One study suggests that 60% of a patient’s healthcare outcome is driven by their behavior and social and economic factors, 10% by their clinical care, and 30% by their genetics."

Wonderful to see a new Google engineering office in Kenya! Nairobi is looking like quite the tech hub 👀 https://t.co/Z2sx3MxghQ

@chrissyfarr There was a paper about this… in Nature I think? The number of fda approved "true” AI products is very small, less than 20?? I will try to find the paper…

[Tempest van Schaik PhD @Dr_Tempest]

Hello Twitter friends! I am back after a hiatus. I look forward to reconnecting about ML for health, responsible AI, women in tech, African tech, biomedical engineering... & following the latest scandals in academia😅🍿

[Tempest van Schaik PhD @Dr_Tempest]

@bronder Ha ha! I love that 😅

[Tempest van Schaik PhD @Dr_Tempest]

Unearthed my vintage neural network notes from 13 years ago when “AI” was distinctly uncool 🧐

Artificial retina is what inspired me to be a biomedical engineer. Here we see the dark side & the human cost of biomedical companies going under. It highlights our responsibility for maintenance of technology: https://t.co/YzvQrUoHgp #biomedicalengineering
