Hot off the press from myself and @guerrero_oa, the first paper on our work advancing the modelling of labour flow networks (aka patterns of job movements). We innovate by emerging these networks from fundamental economic behaviours!

ADR UK is funding 3 Research Fellows to analyse the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings linked to the Census 2011 dataset.

Their policy-relevant projects are investigating wage dynamics, employment patterns, and workforce inequality.

Another pre-print from my work with @guerrero_oa, this time on a simple method for emerging age structure in agent-based models.

Pleased to share a new paper co-authored with @guerrero_oa where we present a novel model that emerges labour flow networks (LFNs).

This work is an exciting milestone for our ongoing work on LFNs!

We’re ready for you, #AIUK! So proud of Team Turing for pulling together this fantastic event. After two years of virtual AIUKs, what a tactile pleasure in-person venues are.

[Turing Public Policy @TuringPubPol]

You can now explore the new Policy Priority Inference website!

Amazing work by @guerrero_oa and his team.

Make sure to head to their demo stand at #AIUK if you’re here.

#AIUK Public Policy stage now! #AI for economic #policymaking: Experiences, challenges, and opportunities - a panel discussion on #DataScience #Models for #PublicPolicy hosted by @guerrero_oa.

[Alisha Davies @AlishaDavies1]

Great discussion on applying #AI #ML to better understand movement within/in & out of labour markets @krfair_ @guerrero_oa
eg understanding impact of changes to the labour market following societal shocks such as #COVID19, economic change

#AIUK @turinginst @TuringPubPol

[Turing Public Policy @TuringPubPol]

How easy is it for people to switch jobs? @KRFair_ will introduce an innovative labour mobility model developed with @BEISGovUK. @Guerrero_OA will lead a panel discussion on #DataScience #Models for #PublicPolicy. 22 March, 11:00 #AIUK

Combining #AI and dynamical systems theory improves tipping point detection. Check out our new publication in PNAS: “Deep learning for early warning signals of tipping points”.

"The consequences of varying government #COVID19 responses will be long-lasting..."

Consistently aiming for elimination over mitigation of #SARS-CoV-2 creates best outcomes for health, the economy, and civil liberties, writes @OliuBarton et al. Read: https://t.co/wu7QAIbVUD.

Epidemiological model to quantify the effect of evictions, and their expected shifts in household size, on the transmission of SARS-CoV-2, and the prospects of its control, in cities.

Misinformation in and about science. @CT_Bergstrom and I have a colloquium paper @PNASNews that discusses some of the parallel challenges of misinformation in science and society. https://t.co/xi4dWqNNV5

[David Fisman @DFisman]

Outstanding paper by @BMAlthouse et al. on paradoxical effects of patchy public health interventions. Create a "squeezing the balloon" effect where people migrate from closed regions to open regions, in search of services (e.g., open churches or malls).

If you think NPIs (closures, etc.) aren't necessary, please read our preprint which estimates how many lives were saved in Ontario during the first wave because of them. Work in collaboration with @VKaratayev @globalecochange @cbauch1.

[One Health - U of Guelph @OneHealthUofG]

You may be wondering, "Why is someone from the School of Environmental Sciences talking about COVID-19? Isn't that a topic of human health?" YES, AND one of animal and environmental health (#OneHealth) - join us next Friday (1 week from today) to hear more about why!

🚨In my final piece of 2020, I look ahead to Pandemic Year 2--the vaccination rollout, how the virus will react, the lingering societal scars, and the larger lessons we must learn (but risk forgetting) from this horrendous year. 1/
