On June 21, 2024, Asian American Scholar Forum Asian American Scholar Forum will host a webinar on bias against Asian American faculty in research funding and prestigious recognitions, and how to correct this situation: aasforum.org/2024/06/14/aas…

Congratulations to my long time collaborator and friend, and my statistical little brother, Veera Baladandayuthapani, for being selected to be Rev next chair of biostatistics at the University of Michigan!!! An outstanding scientist, teacher, mentor, and leader with the highest

Wow. And so the saga comes to an end.... sort of. There are still many papers that used Poore's data (including one of mine) that require further investigation. We are working to validate using the corrected dataset. I hope others are too.

Please join us for the 2024 PQG conference on AI for genomics and Health on Oct 17-18. A fantastic speaker lineup

I had 1 published paper and a couple submitted when I went on the faculty job market and had several offers. Things are clearly different from 15 years ago, but even now, most of my post docs who successfully find jobs do not have 13 papers.

At Oak Ridge Lab's Asian American Heritage Month celebration, AASF’s Gisela Perez Kusakawa highlighted the historical challenges and lasting contributions of Asian Americans. We thank our hosts for welcoming AASF and working to support its Asian American scientists!

Tangent (unrelated to peer review): Overly long papers more hurt authors. The authors' message is often lost. Authors of megapapers squeeze everything from the data, jealously guarding their pie. Their papers are often confusing with too many messages and end up in the trash.
