@RAwTheDJ Happy Birthday, Jerel! I hope it was a good one :)

Raise your hand if pregnancy made you even more radically pro choice.

My baby getting COVID the same day @US_FDA finally approves vaccines is just too cruel. It’s not just caring for a sick baby while being quite sick myself, it’s the 14-day quarantine with a 1 year old & a 4 year old.

[Brooke Alhanti, PhD, MPH @stuffbhlikes]

The (almost) 4 year old’s birthday party has to be canceled, her grandparents can’t visit on her birthday, etc. I’m so sad for all of us.

@rlbarter Check out @DCRINews and @Duke in general - tons of job openings in biostatistics and a great place to work!

@BenjaminEPark @calvinjburke Thank you so much! Looking forward to reading yours someday 😄

@BenjaminEPark @calvinjburke Can either of you recommend a general book on Mormon history? An overall history from founding to now (not solely focused on the 1800s)? Preferably for a non-LDS audience. TY!

[Brooke Alhanti, PhD, MPH @stuffbhlikes]

@jerkob Totally agree. The entire system is rife with corruption.

My three year old excitedly yelled, “Happy Mother’s Day!” and then immediately followed up with, “But, Mom. When is Kid’s Day?? A day where you get ME presents?”

@LucyStats Thanks, Lucy! I have had many debates over p-values in Table 1 😔 Some medical journals insist on them and it’s so frustrating.

[Brooke Alhanti, PhD, MPH @stuffbhlikes]

@LucyStats Thank you for your presentation and the lively discussion! I also prefer using confidence intervals. How do you respond when a journal/reviewer demands p-values? My clinical collaborators always want to just give them p-values to get published ASAP….

Looks like we were invited to the same wedding this summer…

@EmilyHGriffith1 @StoicHamster They are SO much better for traffic. We got them in ATL about 10 years ago and they cleared up some awful intersections. I am thrilled to see them in Raleigh!

@jerkob As someone who lives in the Triangle and works at Duke, it’s absolutely wild. I’ve never seen so many Duke/UNC shirts on people just out & about. I find the rivalry fun, but some people take it very seriously.
