Great work by @andreevallecam.bsky.social leading an @epiverse-trace.bsky.social training working at the School of Public Health in University of Chile last month: saludpublica.uchile.cl/noticias/227...

#EpiverseTRACE training empowers public health pros and policymakers with data skills for better decisions in health emergencies. Huge thanks to @andreevallecam.bsky.social Laura Gómez Bermeo data.org/people/laura-gomez-bermeo/ & Abdoelnaser Degoot linkedin.com/in/abdoelnaser-degoot-02089682/

what software do people use to generate pretty-looking causal DAGs for their papers? (answers that take the form of an R package preferred, but “we always use Powerpoint/Canva/… because doing it in code is too hard” is a useful data point too)

Tal vez cabría matizar la primera afirmación y evitar monismos reduccionistas. Porque derecha no hay una, sino muchas.

En la historia han existido, por los planes y programas ejecutados y con resultados materializados, derechas con proyectos socialistas.

It's publication day for "Asymptomatic" via Johns Hopkins U Press. The book explores the paradox of asymptomatic transmission and rationale for proactive steps to confront future pandemics:

🔬 Malaria beyond primates? 🦌

Hi, Bluesky! 🌿 I study malaria in the Peruvian Amazon, and we just found Plasmodium odocoilei clade 1 in a red brocket deer (Mazama americana)—something unexpected! 🤯

Is the fascism denomination due to the deportation program or any other political policy or ideology?

Is a report like the one below biased about comparing governments?

por otro lado, ¿el uso de la palabra "ciencias" puesto en práctica fue por la diferencia en la metodología (tradicional, occidental) o por las diferencias en el núcleo y objeto de estudio de los campos de conocimiento (biología, química, física)?

¿qué tanto riesgo de extractivismo de conocimiento o investigación de helicóptero hay en estas interacciones? ¿cómo se reducen dichos riesgos en la atribución de autorías o, incluso, de patentes? Tal vez temas a tomar en cuenta en dichas interacciones.

Completamente de acuerdo en la estrategia. Sin embargo, ¿es Europa la plataforma política capaz de materializar dicha estrategia? o ¿Sería más viable aplicar esa estrategia a nivel de un Estado-nación? ¿Qué tan dependiente es la planificación en política económica de un Estado dentro de la UE?

A thread🧵 on application systems for postdoc jobs in the UK (applies to my university, but I've seen others and they're similar).
