An algorithm's performance can vary across populations, but there are various ways to address this. Yet, which one should you use? Our study (led by Nick Jackson) looks at the impact of oversampling and synthetic data augmentation. #reliable #health #AI pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/article…

Great to have @Rbaltman with us at @vumcdbmi for Grand Rounds right now. If you’re having FOMO, that’s understandable and appropriate 😉, but recording to follow.

The abrupt terminations of more than 1,000 employees, including new Epidemic Intelligence Officers, across CDC are deeply disturbing. For more than 70 years, EIS officers have served on America’s front line as its disease detectives, ready at a moment’s notice to respond to emerging outbreaks.
