It's been 10 years since we published our first review of sex differences in #TB prevalence. In this update, we found men remain twice as likely as women to have TB, and disparities have likely widened over time. journals.plos.org/plosmedicine...

Will this help or hinder human development? Too often we try to predict, based on subtle differences between us and machines; speculating on future trajectories. We argue this is misguided; we should look at the space of complementarity, and shore up the gaps and inequalities between humans.

We look forward to your submissions and please reach out with any questions. Topics may include comparisons of conventional approaches with #PrecisionNutrition, application of AI/ML methods to collection of new data/studies, to existing data, considerations for ethics, and graduate training.
