Emmett Till Interpretive Center (@etic_tillcenter) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Thanks to the white supremacist group that visited our marker to 14 year-old, Emmett Till. Because of you: we raised $20,000, two major foundations contacted us, and we have had countless visitors to our museum, website and 3,000 new twitter followers. Please share to thank them!

#epitwitter- How much should we focus on COVID-19 in teaching epi courses this fall? Obviously should play a role but I'm worried about losing focus and going down rabbit holes.

Please consider supporting @EmmeTillcenter in Mississippi. The sign memorializing Emmett's place of death has been vandalized 3 times with bullet holes, acid and paint.

I’m hearing from vaccinated people who are frightened about breakthrough cases, the Delta variant, and new waves of Covid. But it’s not vaccinated people who should be most concerned. Here’s what I expect to happen over the coming weeks. 1/thread

Statistical power calculations are often required for causal analyses of observational databases. They shouldn't be. Refuse to play the power game. If a causal question is important enough, low power can't be an excuse to do nothing. Analyze your data👇 jclinepi.com/article/S0895-…

📌A New Year's resolution for all researchers: Let's make 2022 the year in which scientific journals said goodbye to statistical significance. We just won't type "statistically significant" in our papers, even if asked by clueless reviewers or editors. x.com/i/events/86422…
