I became this much sooner in my academic career than anticipated

Excited to share results from a 4-year first-ever RCT across US jails. We (Crystal Yang & I) find that death rates are much higher in jails than officially reported & health care accreditation improves staff coordination, quality & save lives.

The repo is still private. (My custom theme needs work. 🙃) Will share a public release!

Clarification: these were entirely different major projects published in stats, econ, and clinical journals. No LPUs! Then synthesized together in a policy brief.

Great summaries, thanks!!

EC 2025 will be held at Stanford from July 7-12. Itai Ashlagi and I are the chairs. The abstract deadline is February 3, and the paper deadline is February 10. The scope is inclusive of many topics across CS, economics, and operations research. Submit your best work!

Right?? Great build. Also very cute.

Adorable!

Sherri Rose @sherrirose.bsky.social · Dec 27

Indeed. Many successful academics are miserable because they are always trying to accumulate more high-profile successes. There is no enough.

Academics from poorer socio-economic backgrounds are more likely to
- not publish
- have outstanding publication records
- introduce more novel scientific concepts
- less likely to receive recognition, as measured by citations, Nobel Prize nominations, and awards.

Making kidney tests work for everyone

The United States has moved to deracialize kidney diagnostics. The move addresses major health-equity issues — but it also shines a light on a problematic clinical test.

Was a pre-med junior when a faculty member sent me a flyer about a new program called the Summer Institute for Training in Biostatistics

Had never heard of 'biostatistics' as a field; sounded like exactly what I wanted to do

Was accepted into the program, ultimately led to a PhD in biostatistics

What's the moment of luck that's had the biggest impact for your academic career? For me, it was how I wouldn't have gotten a PhD fellowship if it wasn't for the 1st-ranked person declining, which meant that I was awarded the fellowship as 2nd-ranked applicant. That was my last shot at a PhD.

Interested in all broad feedback. 🙂 We discuss barriers to uptake in the course and potential solutions. I wanted to hear about current challenges people face to incorporate additional issues. Every organization, field, etc has different barriers.

Sherri Rose @sherrirose.bsky.social · Nov 22

Collaborative writing is indeed a challenge when not everyone uses the same ecosystem. We currently use quarto, but not all collaborators do. So this might involve exporting a word file and merging those comments back into the .qmd. Not a seamless solution, but better than some others we've used.

This course is required for some of our PhD students (depends on discipline).
