I'll be at #AACR26, giving a talk on accessing an interpretable deep learning model of palbociclib response on two real-world clinical cohorts. Let's catch up if you are attending.

I gave an internal talk at UCSD last year regarding "novelty" in computer science research. In it I "debunked" some of the myth people seem to have about what is good research in computer science these days. People seemed to like it, so I thought I should share.

Maybe smile works the same way as tears: a smile of joy, a smile of pain, and a smile of hidden rage.

(Longish thread. Apologies)

I have met many inspiring colleagues over the past few months, many of whom are in academic institutions targeted by the current administration, and many others who are about to be (the analogy to the ‘eye of Sauron’ has been invoked many times; gallows humor). 1/

Censor, purge, defund: how Trump following the authoritarian playbook on science and universities I have mapped 35 of the Trump administration's attacks on science and universities to the authoritarian playbook - and consider what it means for attacks still to come

My latest post is now out.

I show how Trump's attacks on science and universities are neither random nor new - they fit very precisely into the authoritarian playbook.

This means we can guess what might come next and prepare - and we must!

Only problem is Musk doesn't care about the correctness of AI for these black-mirroresque applications. An AI can easily decide who to fire based on email because it can come up with any arbitrary metric and a seemingly perfect explanation for it. Problem solved.

Gene editing technology began by people studying salt marshes. Ozempic began by folks studying the venom of Gila Monsters. Support for basic science has empowered us to understand our world. Tethering it to applications health has transformed and saved countless lives.
