MK1 Steam Preorders a: I contacted steam again and they have confirmed that we will indeed get the game 1 week early if we pre-order the premium edition. So, 14th is also on PC and not only Consoles. #MK1 #MortalKombat1

This semester I am teaching Spatial Data Science with #rstats. We will be covering statistical methods and #dataviz tools with applications to #diseasemapping #airpollution #ecology #environment Introduction slides 👉paulamoraga.com/presentation-c… #rspatial #GISchat #epitwitter

I just say Wow! Read and get inspired from this knowledgable, energetic, humoristic and musical person!

Amazing to be part of this topical discussion on the current / future role of AI / ML in pharmacometrics at the PharMetrX network meeting in Berlin

While preparing two new courses for Posit PBC's #positconf2023 in #Chicago, I've also updated the 2-day #ggplot2 workshop from last year's conf to use the same style 💅 Slides, exercises, solutions, and more—available here 👉 rstudio-conf-2022.github.io/ggplot2-graphi… #rstats #tidyverse #dataviz

Just 2 days to our symposium discussing synergies among different disciplines that use #Mathematics and #modeling to benefit #healthcare. I’m really looking forward to hearing our esteemed panel as they are guided by Catriona Waitt. Visit pmxafrica.org/cmms-2023/ for more details

Where do quantum physics, pharmacokinetic modelling, health economics and agricultural science? We found many exciting commonalities at the PMX Africa Data School cross disciplinary mathematical modelling and simulation symposium this morning. Francesco Petruccione

Less than a week until #DigitalHealthAfrica2024! This is an area of rapid development, involving multiple disciplines & sectors. The conference aims catalyse discussion, debate & enable deeper collaboration & networking. Still time to register (hybrid): digitalhealthafrica.org/register/

The sun is setting over Lake Victoria. It's nearly time for #DigitalHealthAfrica2024! As final preparations are underway, there is still time to register: digitalhealthafrica.org/register/ Check out the programme: digitalhealthafrica.org/programme/ #AtTheEquatorUG

#DigitalHealthAfrica2024 Samer Mouksassi gives a clear overview of how PK modelling has developed since 1977 to now be able to inform precise dosing for clinically complex individuals. Further development of #AI alongside these approaches should help streamline clinical decision making

#DigitalHealthAfrica2024 Clarence Mbanga from DAC-A provides shocking statistics on the number of clinical trials which are ineffective and may represent missed opportunity. The DAC-A review process provides a structured constructive review to enhance quality

We have a new nlmixr2 blog entry courtesy of Hitesh Mistry (@HilsethMistrov) and Nicola Melillo (@NicolaMelil) detailing how to upscale nlmixr2 using AWS. This is helpful for long running SAEM models. In the future it may be even more interesting with other methods parallelized.

I've updated my template for Quarto statistical reports using R: hbiostat.org/rr/#template #rstats #Statistics . Thanks to @vandy_biostat Max Rohde for starting this template and introducing me to Quarto

James C Meyer I’m seeing less and less appropriateness of time-to-event analysis as patient outcomes are more complex and rich than that (including up and down responses over time), so I’m using Markov state transition models more. But for causality I refer to experts in g-estimation.

I'm pleased to announce the release of scales 1.4.0 for #rstats. While scales mainly exists to serve #ggplot2, this release packs a bunch of improvements that is good to be aware of. Read more at tidyverse.org/blog/2025/04/s…

Really excellent work here! Random forest and XGBoost are overused, overhyped, and likely lead to worse decision making than if not used. That these are to facilitate “precision medicine” is a misunderstanding of the techniques and curse of dimensionality Roger Borràs Frank Harrell

I am beyond excited to announce that ggplot2 4.0.0 has just landed on CRAN. It's not every day we have a new major hashtag #ggplot2 release but it is a fitting 18 year birthday present for the package. Get an overview of the release here: tidyverse.org/blog/2025/09/g…

Excited to launch the @ASCPT Oncology Community monthly blog series. I have the privilege of leading this initiative! This month: getting the dose right in modern oncology. Next month: pharmacometrics in oncology. More expert insights coming soon. Interested in contributing?
