Is this for the primary or the general? If the latter, her candidacy risks splitting the vote and allowing Collins to win.

‼️The 10x10 digital course, Introduction to Biomedical Informatics and AI, begins TOMORROW!

Hear from course director William Hersh, MD, on what you'll bring to your work after the course.

For those of us on the west coast, it happens during our Seders.

How do they even identify what a "Jew" is? Someone like myself who identifies as being Jewish but has all sorts of issues with organized religion (as my rabbi knows)? Or do you have a go to shul a certain amount? I agree with everyone for whom this scares the hell out of them.

Is there any comparable analysis for biological and medical studies?

It also describes and sets the context for newer technologies, such as SMART on FHIR, generative AI, large language models (LLMs), and wearables. For more information and registration, visit the link below.

Adapted from a graduate-level introductory course, it provides up-to-date details on current events in the field, including electronic health records, data standards and interoperability, clinical decision support, population health, consumer health, telehealth, clinical research, and public health.

Registration is open for the next offering of the AMIA 10x10 (“ten by ten”) course that begins on April 8, 2026. This course provides a detailed overview of biomedical and health informatics and AI to those who will work at the interface of healthcare and information technology (IT).

Next offering of the course begins next week!

I came for a protest and won a peace prize!

Lovely day for a protest with a cast of tens (hundreds?) of thousands in Portland!

The amazing rainbows we get in Oregon! The pot of gold is likely just inside Nehalem Bay State Park.

Tenure is a pretty meaningless designation at my institution, Oregon Health & Science University. It guarantees a title and a token amount of salary. It is not a requirement for any leadership role. I suspect this is the case at many medical schools.

I am looking for to attending the @amia.org #Amplify2026 conference in May!

I enjoyed the opportunity to give my talk "AI in Education and Education in AI" yesterday to the Department of Computational Biomedicine at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles. Link to a PDF of my slides and references: assets.zyrosite.com/Aq2WRaVw59SJ...

1/n Listened to a thought provoking lecture by @billhersh.bsky.social on the role of AI in education and the need for education about AI. It seems to me that we need a radical rethink about the many purposes of education and how to deliver education to achieve those purposes. Surely it is time to...

Ok, I am impressed. Flying a United Embraer 175 tonight with Starlink from SFO to PDX. You can get it via wifi as soon as you board the plane, no need to wait until takeoff or 10,000 feet. And it's fast!

Applications for this #microbiome #datascience short course are due next week!

If you're in biomedical research, interested in building data science skills to study the microbiome and reusing publicly available data, this course is for you!

Tiny Nehalem, OR, population 200.

This is an excellent, if sad, collection.

Yes, I agree, you have to cull through that all.

Agree with you both about X, although I do keep my account there for now. And I find LinkedIn a great platform for scientific awareness, which X/Twitter used to be for me.

billhersh.bsky.social's Bluesky Wrapped 2025 Check out billhersh.bsky.social's year on Bluesky!

I genuinely enjoy Bluesky, its content, and the people on it with whom I interact, but the engagement here is nothing like other social media platforms, namely LinkedIn and Facebook.

Kinda like telling healthcare receptionists your birthdate over and over.

Da Bears!

Applications are open for our Human Microbiome Data Discovery short course at Oregon Health & Science University!

Happy Holidays!

My whole life, summed up in three words. @amia.org

Although the course has a clinical orientation, many non-clinicians working in health IT environments have found the course accessible and the knowledge gained invaluable to their professional development.

It also describes and sets the context for newer technologies, such as SMART on FHIR, large language models (LLMs), generative AI, and wearables.
