Really pleased that the model fitting and inference for infectious disease modelling short course is running again this year (7-10th September) at #LSHTM and is now all in #julialang. www.lshtm.ac.uk/study/course...

Published a JuliaHealth proceedings paper: "Bringing Julia to Health: A Concise Overview of JuliaHealth"! 🎉 As the ecosystem continues to grow, I am excited to have this as a community reference and overview. 🌐 Would love your thoughts! 🤓 Catch us @juliacon.org! #julialang #academicsky 🧪 📊🛟

Congrats Markian Hromiak, Aradhya Rajanala, & Katy Sadowski -- won a best community contribution award! 🎉 Showed how to shrink 220GB of synthetic medical data to 20GB w @duckdb.org, host on constrained machines, & use it via #rstats #julialang #python wrappers 🧪 #academicsky #publichealth #datasci

Markian & I worked with Katy Sadowski to create small OMOP CDM patient databases. We discussed a #workflow to generate 1 million patient DB that went from ~220GB to ~20GB -- ~90% data reduction! Goal was to provide researchers more realistic & performant @duckdb.org DBs for health informatics. 📊🩺

My first time presenting on compositional public health outside a maths venue! Working on general slogans but we describe it as: "Compositional public health empowers researchers to reclaim agency through abstraction in public health." Time to run studies using AlgebraicJulia! #mathsky #julialang
