Incredibly honored to join the 2024 #CarnegieFellows!
The fellowship will support my research on how people update their views and attitudes in response to the conversations they take part in and the information they engage with online.

How can we promote discernment in online information sharing? A new large-scale experiment with social media users from Kenya and Nigeria, designed by @mofferw, @LeahRosenzweig, and @Susan_Athey, tests interventions to curb misinformation.

Incorporating insights from the machine learning/causal inference literature into adaptive experimentation improves performance. Our new paper in #AIStats2023:
@JaeJaeykim2 Also we would all be doing ourselves a favor by documenting which versions of R packages we're using in a given project (I also don't systematically do this).
@Matt__Graham @JaeJaeykim2 Mostly just base r for variable creation and selective indexing. I admit that aggregate is inferior to group_by, summarize, and I do use dplyr, but try to be selective in which packages I use for specific tasks (dplyr, lubridate) rather than loading in tidyverse as a whole.
Re-posting this for the weekday crowd.
Come hang out with us at WUSTL.
(And don't be afraid to call yourself a "data scientist." We invite applications from people with a huge variety of skills and interests. If you're not sure --- apply and find out!)
@soashworth @Andrew___Baker I agree, I find it useful as a thesaurus: how can I rewrite this paragraph so that it's more clear, uses less jargon? Even getting bad suggestions makes the rewriting process easier—and sometimes the suggestions are good.
