"The findings are consistent with recommendations made by both the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization. Both have indicated that hand hygiene is the most efficient and cost-effective way to control disease propagation." #WashYourHands

With a $2M NIH grant, two UConn researchers will investigate the regulators of a cell type that plays a critical role in metabolic diseases associated with obesity. today.uconn.edu/school-stories… UConn Health

This is the worst thing that’s happened to US science and innovation. Banning #Immigrant scientists will lead to a devastating loss in creativity and productivity. Pretty much every lab in the US will suffer. whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

Very nice work done by Dr. Emmanuel Gautier group! Impaired Kupffer Cell Self-Renewal Alters the Liver Response to Lipid Overload during Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis. #Macrophages cell.com/immunity/fullt…

Advanced Modelling in R with CARET – a focus on supervised machine learning {r-bloggers.com/?p=198741} #rstats #DataScience

I started tracking hits on my #rstats blog a few weeks ago, which has been unexpectedly fascinating. 😄 #ggplot2 posts get the most views, but my post on plotting fitted lines takes the 🎂. It's consistently ~15-20% of all page views. aosmith.rbind.io/2018/11/16/plo…

A new Cancer Research study featuring Richard Hynes Koch Institute at MIT and Scott Manalis MIT Dept of BE shows that the YAP oncogene can affect the distribution of tumor cells within an animal — influencing the global pattern of metastasis: bit.ly/2VsM8lB
