Tons of people in Durham showed up for the No Kings rally today! Thanks @jessiet1023.bsky.social for the toddler support :)

Just an unending stream of people in glorious Durham North Carolina

📣 Call for Papers! The IEEE-EMBS Body Sensor Networks (BSN) 2025 conference is now open for submissions. Proud to share that #CDHI Center member @drjessilyn.bsky.social is a Technical Program Co-Chair! 🔗 bsn.embs.org/2025/

We are very excited to announce the call for papers for the IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Body Sensor Networks (BSN 2025) to be held in the stunning city of Los Angeles, California, USA. Please visit bsn.embs.org/2025/contrib... for details #BSN2025

As a Jewish faculty member at one of these institutions, I am saying right now, in the clearest tones possible: not in my name. This violent exploitation of Jews as an alibi for achieving Fascist ends is itself textbook antisemitism.

For #CHIL2025, we're gathering top literature from 2024 in AI & healthcare. "Top" can mean an exciting topic, a method you found extremely useful, or a game-changing dataset. Drop your recommendations (and why you chose them) in the coments below! 👇

Revisit the 2022 RCCN Workshop ‘mHealth and Digital Health Approaches to Research in Aging’ with these recommendations from the workshop publication, originally published in Innovation in Aging: bit.ly/3CYAKqD #AgingResearch #mHealth #DigitalHealth

We are very excited to announce the call for papers for the IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI 2025) to be held in the beautiful city of Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Please visit bhi.embs.org/2025/papers/ for details #BHI2025 #HealthInformatics #biomedical

Seems like the rate limiter is the number of sensors? @yann-lecun.bsky.social

While there are some aspects of this EO that could be promising, like focusing research on prevention as opposed to reactive medicine, there are a lot of concerning specifics. I highlight here just two.

Science is absolutely key to the US's success but this government's intention to now dramatically reduce the part of the federal grants that go to the university (in addition to the researchers; the "indirects") is like removing the unseen roots of a tree and expecting it to continue to flourish.

Is this our line in the sand? How can we review NIH applications knowing they specifically exclude members of our community?

The members of the review panel should refuse to serve unless the applications are reinstated.

Reducing the indirect rate on NIH grants to 15% will kill biomedical and health research in the US. I'm not exaggerating here. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

This is an insane move for NIH to make when the obvious answer is to review all the F grants this cycle as a single pool.

My NIH NINDS Workforce Diversity Success Story is no longer on the NIH website. "403 Access Denied".

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

Just downloaded 5 calls app which makes it SO EASY to contact your senators and congress people. Make your voice heard today!

Excited to be working with @drjessilyn.bsky.social to review the most interesting papers from January 2024- January 2025 in AI for healthcare. Share with me your favorites by commenting!
