Good data analysis is tricky. It requires knowledge, training, & thought. That's not gatekeeping, it's a fact for most scientific tasks! Machine learning tools may be tempting, but naive data-driven analyses can be dangerously misleading. We need more thought not less.

In 2018, "Parachute use to prevent death and major trauma when jumping from aircraft: randomized controlled trial" was published in the British Medical Journal. It sought to determine if wearing a parachute when jumping from a plane had any impact on survivability. It did not.

Are physicians ready to adopt clinical decision support tools to interpret molecular profiling data? 2 months since publication (bit.ly/3aNEU64), the IPSS-M calculator (mds-risk-model.com/) has computed risk for 17,640K MDS patient profiles from >60 countries.

The amount Elon Musk just paid for Twitter ($44 billion) is nearly equal to Biden’s proposed climate budget ($44.9 billion), in case anyone's wondering how seriously we’re taking the climate crisis
