Reminder: TidierData.jl is the new home for #JuliaLang’s dplyr and tidyr implementations. It began as a fork of Tidier.jl, where Tidier.jl now wraps all of the Tidier packages. Over the last month, it’s gotten >300 downloads. If you haven’t, take a look! github.com/TidierOrg/Tidi…

Do mandated public health interventions have similar economic and health effects as organic behavioral change? Using computational experiments, new work shows that a similar tradeoff between epidemic and economic outcomes exists in both cases. nature.com/articles/s4156…

🇮🇹 I will be attending #Epidemics9 this week! 🗣️ Find out more about including variability in farmer disease management behaviour into livestock disease models at my poster on Tuesday (P1.057) 🐮🐄 Paper 🔗: doi.org/10.1016/j.prev… Podcast episode 🎧: sbiderpresents.podbean.com/e/sbider-prese…

Just arrived in 🇮🇹 for #Epidemics9 ! If you're around, save some energy for the Thursday poster session, where I'll be showcasing 2 related projects 🤓 In the meantime, look our for more talks/posters from our labs Institut Pasteur, since 1887 EMEA and MESuRS Cnam during the week!

pretalx.com/juliacon2024/c… This Call for Proposals will close on 15th January 2024 at 23:59 (CET) The deadline for mini-symposia is already 15th December 2023, 23:59 (CET) We are interested in hearing about all topics related to Julia. #julialang #DataScience #conference

CDC's Center for Forecasting and Outbreak Analytics is now sharing Rt estimates for COVID-19 and Influenza. More at cdc.gov/forecast-outbr…

Currently working on my first #julialang code base and looking around for good examples for inspiration. Does anyone have suggestions? Ideally, they would include Bayesian modelling (and even more ideally using Turing.jl). github.com/CDCgov/Rt-with…

Stephen Wild Sam Abbott (@[email protected]) The turing docs have some pretty good examples. If you're an infectious disease person, you might like the covid replication study from 2020. It's a relatively large model, not sure if you want simple stuff or applied stuff. turing.ml/dev/posts/2020… github.com/cambridge-mlg/…

Sam Abbott (@[email protected]) Stephen Wild Even Better Cameron Pfiffer 📎 I'm perpetually dissatisfied with project code (even my own), so I can't really recommend any of that. In terms of packages, I can recommend one of my own: github.com/arviz-devs/PSI…. It's pretty representative of what I think are good practices in terms of tests, GH actions, etc.

Julia 1.11 has now been released! This minor release also marks the update of the LTS to version 1.10!! Check out the release highlights here: julialang.org/blog/2024/10/j…
