Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime. And, departing, leave behind us footprints on the sands of time. Footprints, that perhaps another sailing o’er life’s solemn main, a forlorn and shipwrecked brother, seeing, shall take heart again

If one has faith in justice, integrity, and compassion, the Cultural Revolution were the darkest. Professors were persecuted, research was silenced, and my mom lost her dad. Id still say we bounce back. Just you wait. There is always this one shine the brightest and may the one live to see the dawn

If I were to win a big lottery and I don’t need to worry about surviving, I’d start to take the noble art of submitting research to journals using my new pen name, Dick Turpin. Just to express my fondness of horses

Trying to identify opioids and other drugs in pharmacy data (claims, PDMP, etc.)? Use my code to quickly build a list of national drug codes (NDCs) using the free public database RxNorm.
I wrote this code to replace the CDC's now-discontinued opioid NDC dataset.

Incorporating informative Bayesian priors offers the ability to learn more from experiments. @leoiacovone.bsky.social , @economeager.bsky.social & @dmckenzie.bsky.social demonstrate how to do this in the context of a Colombian exporting experiment. buff.ly/CwdGmKE

4 books in a corner shelf chronicling my long gone grad student days. 2 inherited from the legendary Rodney Andrews. 1 gifted to me after I passed on my copy from Rodney to one of his other (and brightest) students

Ginkgo leaf on a chilly morning in Kendall Square. This is a cute physical representation of passage of time — 200 million years in the making. How fast this semester went by

Can’t stop thinking about the faces I met at a recent female scholar session. Growing up as an East Asian woman, I never imagined white women in my generation faced challenges too. I blame the movies. Life is more fun when we bond over the darkness we all experience and share a good laugh about it

It would be Dr. Rodney Andrews’s 49th (or 50?) birthday yesterday. Still tough. Still miss him. Still hundreds of moments where we thought what would Rodney say. Hundreds of moments I thought, would Rodney be impressed by my IV or my shoe leathers? One reason don’t want the other platform go

A hundred years ago in the Second World War, professors, staffs and students in northeastern China had to leave home and walk to southwestern China to continue their disrupted study. I do think about their courage, determination, and visionary in that great walk more often recently

‘Given data’ means ‘given given’ in Latin. That led me to ask to whom were the data really given and to the idea that the whole problem was the utilization of information dispersed among thousands of people and not possessed by anyone. Hayek, 1994

Daniel O’Brien passed away. When he taught us math Econ, he did not mention a single word about his great achievement with the Texas School Project, or his other IBM EDS life. He was just there patiently and repeatedly. He has the best jokes. Live long and prosper to all the great scholars

“Being in academia should not be for a wrong reason. Not about the fame, or money, or fancy methods. Your career should be guided by your curiosity of the society. Go read widely.” That’s probably the last thing Ross Anderson said to me at the last conference. Such a big loss. RIP
