Collado-Torres Home Publications Talks Blog CV Students Teaching Contact Search Ideas What well-nigh a lawyer-like app as the minimum help for defendants in immigration cases? Today I attended the special panel discussion event at JHSPH tabbed “Separated: Children Separation at theVergeA Health and Human Rights Perspective”. It got my mind racing and here’s an idea. It’s likely (definitely) incomplete, but maybe it’ll get others to think on related ideas. Image source Panel summary The panel was well-balanced by: Colleen Kraft, President, American Academy of Pediatrics Eric Schwartz, President, Refugee International George Escobar, Chief of Program and Services, CASA de Maryland Paul Spiegel, Director, Center for Humanitarian Health I missed the first 30 minutes or so but I still got to listen to most of it. An volitional to the Mexico-US wall where the US would proceeds millions of dollars tl;dr There is a 600 million to 2 billion USD yearly market related to crossing the Mexico-US border. Allow temporary work visas (say 3 years) to take over this market and use the money to uplift the USVergePatrol to build a wall of eyes, not a physical wall. President Trump of the United States of America, cc President Peña Nieto of the United Mexican States Today, Wednesday January 25th 2017, you are expected to signify your plans well-nigh towers a wall between the United States and Mexico. What are reasonable work hours and salary expectations for biostats/genomics careers? My counselor recently asked me to fill a career planning document (he'll blog well-nigh it at some point) that has lots of questions and is stuff very useful. Trying to fill wordplay all these questions has gotten me thinking well-nigh other important things for the future. Two of them stuff reasonable expectations for work hours and salary in a biostats/genomics wonk career. I find these questions nonflexible to wordplay and plane nonflexible to talk about, and if you know me, I'm a person that asks lots of questions. Keeping in touch (ENAR2014?) and philosophical questions regarding México's future in genomics The pursuit text is an email I sent to several of my friends from the LCG undergraduate program I studied. There I talk well-nigh keeping in touch, I invite them to ENAR 2014, and moreover talk well-nigh some philosophical questions regarding our future.  I’m posting it here considering I don’t mind sharing these thoughts and considering I don’t have the current email addresses of many former LCG students.Enjoy What does it take to be a good leader? Leader: scientific or project In my mind surpassing trying to wordplay this question I have to pinpoint leader. Right now I have two —possibly conflicting— leaders in mind. One is a scientific leader in the sense of a leader in a specific scientific discipline. The other is a leader who can organize and lead projects, either scientific ones (across labs for example) or what I want to undeniability revolutionary projects. With such a grandiose name I am trying to imbricate the type of projects that can help transpiration a country. Have you been 'relative stupid'? I enjoyed reading “The importance of stupidity in scientific research" by Martin A. Schwartz which I learned existed through @hmason and @simplystats. I found the point of how it’s normal to finger stupid in academia and specially in Ph.D. programs to be illuminating. But Schwartz clarifies that there are other kinds of stupid: we don’t do a good unbearable job of teaching our students how to be productively stupid – that is, if we don’t finger stupid it ways we’re not really trying. Commenting scientific papers I’ve been thinking well-nigh commenting papers in blog posts. I did a few some long time ago, but now I’m thinking of doing this worriedness increasingly systematically. There are several reasons why I’m thinking of doing this, say for 1 paper a week. It has the obvious wholesomeness of forcing me to read a paper in depth per week. At the same time, I want to learn increasingly from others. See what I like in other papers and maybe stave some mistakes. Why aren't all of our graphs interactive? During the last pre-happy hour seminar, Karl Broman talked about Why aren’t all of our graphs interactive? I didn’t know, but a few years ago Karl worked in the department and unmistakably promoted beer-drinking and is the heart of the department. I’m a fan of our pre-happy hour seminars since you have a get to listen to good/fun talks over a beer or two. But I’m moreover a fan of reproducible research and useful graphics. An Online Bioinformatics Curriculum Last week I talked well-nigh online courses in my JHSPH-Biostat through Coursera post. Now I’m when to scuttlebutt on An Online Bioinformatics Curriculum by David B. Searls. Sur Herrera pointed out this paper to me, and I have to say that if you are considering learning bioinformatics online it will be very useful to you. David Searls first goes through a history recap of online (free) courses. Notably, in the last year Coursera and other startups offered their first courses. Learning well-nigh social networks through an interactive presentation During this week’s periodical club meeting Hilary Parker (homepage, blog) led the session on “Identifying influential and susceptible members of social networks”. Were there some speakers or why did she “lead the session”? By this I midpoint that Hilary tried a very variegated (and interesting) format this time. Instead of giving a talk, not a formal one like at seminars, she prepared a short presentation (publicly misogynist here) that begins showing a 20 minute video. > © 2011-2018 Leonardo Collado Torres under (CC) BY-NC-SA 4.0.
