@AnaLRodriguezD Interesting! Can you please share which book? Thanks

[Lamia Ben @lammiia]

The joy of sharing your work on social media...

Very few people read the actual papers in tweets*

*Unless they hate the conclusion, in which case, I find people will skim the paper to find one thing they think is wrong (often a result of misunderstanding the methods) and & declare the whole paper dumb. https://t.co/cOqqYDDPvD

“While intended to make the scientific literature more accessible, it is now reported that OA publishing fees deter researchers in the global south from performing research and our own study has already raised the same concern from an African perspective”

@7didane Probably gonna be a case-by-case ruling. Which doesn’t bode well for artists I guess. Image source: https://t.co/gWnkocr9eO

[Lamia Ben @lammiia]

@Nouronal Totally agree.

Of all of the “dangers of AI” papers, this is most worrying: AI researchers building a tool to find new drugs to save lives realized it could do the opposite, generating new chemical warfare agents. Within 6 hours it invented deadly VX… and worse things https://t.co/PB6l5A717F

Had an absolute blast competing alongside @BayramUlya at the CLPsych workshop (@CLPsychOrg) again this year! Grateful to the D&I award for making our presentation at #NAACL2022 possible!

[Ulya Bayram, Ph.D. @BayramUlya]

#NAACL2022 started! Check out our talk on Emotionally-Informed Models for Detecting Moments of Change & Suicide Risk at the CLPsych Workshop, July 15th, 11:20am

Our study titled "The unknown knowns: a graph-based approach for temporal COVID-19 literature mining" is out: https://t.co/sL54eSYctH
With my co-authors @lammiia, Runia Roy, and @aqilassalil, we're proposing a framework to efficiently utilize the scientific knowledge on COVID-19

@Un_Marocain I was just reading about this here and wondering what exactly our strategy will look like. I’m pretty curious! https://t.co/owA9cIOy8t

Decided to start a wiki of sort for all resources I often share with my PhD students. I will be updating it regularly and would welcome any suggestions 😄 https://t.co/DhGgTEr3mS #AcademicTwitter

[Lamia Ben @lammiia]

@Yniim I like to read the school of life’s books, not necessarily just De Botton. I do recommend :-)

@ChamRayStanford Oooh don’t get me started on the data scientists 😂😂

[Lamia Ben @lammiia]

The term infodemiology was coined in 2002, the wiki page was created in 2014. But now, I’m sure we’ll be seeing ‘infodemiologist’ all over our LinkedIn

[Lamia Ben @lammiia]

@manlius84 Agreed. I‘m just curious to see who will claim the title, as it is often the case with buzz profiles 😅

@moroccanpeopIe When I was young, we used to do the monument tour on some Fridays. Best memories of my childhood. Makes one appreciate the beauty of History.
