This trope is racist but it’s also simply fabricated. Immigrants (including the undocumented) actually subsidize the costs of Medicaid and Medicare for US born. inthesetimes.com/article/trump-…

For many Haitian immigrants, Sundays in Springfield, Ohio, are spent joyfully worshipping God in their native Creole. This Sunday, they needed it more than ever as their community reels from false accusations that they are eating their neighbor’s pets. apnews.com/article/spring…

Can't stand to see DTJr. cast his net of ugly over the entire Haitian people. He doesn't know anything about Haiti except one thing, and that makes them an easy target for racists like Trump. Here's my piece on Haiti and the US published just as JD Vance began his scurrilous

If you thought STS researchers and practitioners of "Rapid RCTs" couldn't work together, think again! In my latest attempt to do sociology from within bioethics, we examine classification practices to ask when medical work that uses ML models is "research" tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

Israel having the ability to target militant networks in this sophisticated way as well as its targeting of high level Hamas figures abroad makes its operation in Gaza look even more deliberately genocidal

Excited to share new research w/ Michal Horný + Olivia Yu out today in JAMA Network Open! We study insurance denials for preventive care. Denials are 2-3x more likely among disadvantaged groups, and rarely resubmitted, leaving patients on the hook even for preventive care. (1/2)

Netanyahu’s right-wing, extremist government is violating international & US law and has created a humanitarian disaster in Gaza. Today, I announced that I will file Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to stop the sale of U.S. arms to Israel and end our complicity in this disaster.
