NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got. My column: enterprise-sharing.ft.com/redeem/75e5e3d… And some utterly damning charts. 1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

I can’t wait for this conversation. Still time to register virtually for STAT Summit if you’d like to be there too.

It’s such an honor to have Death Sentence included in this anthology. I’ve been giddy about this for months.

Yet another reason to subscribe to STAT+: The incredible work of my colleague Jonathan Wosen, Ph.D. who has been in a series of very smart stories tracing the important changes (and exodus of scientists) from academic life science and what it might mean. See🧵

Hi everyone. I'm done here for now. Please connect with me/message me at: linkedin.com/in/usha-lee-mc…

I wrote about this new analysis that shows it’s really worth digging into state level data when we think about disparities. Outcomes differ widely by state and by racial groups within states. statnews.com/2024/04/18/hea… via STAT
