It’s crazy how postdoc’s are literally the perveyors of culture and society - the heralds of a golden future of science, healthcare, and the technological future of America and yet they’re paid poverty wages. That is CRAZY to me. Like “oh yes please create our cures and amazing medicines and machines but please live in squalor and eat pag pag for breakfast lunch and dinner all day because you aren’t human” is what these conversations at the NIH sound like right now. Then folks wonder why academia is full of fake papers, research that is not reproducible, publish or perish mindsets, and overall rot - it’s because living wages are competitive. By virtue of having a living wage, you weed out corrupt actors. By paying your researchers a living wage, you attract the best and the brightest. Right now? We aren’t doing that. We are doing nothing of the sort. My proof and evidence? Look at the recent Stanford scandal, the recent Harvard scandals, the list goes ON AND ON!

I have successfully completed an online course titled as Biostatistics in Public Health by Johns Hopkins University via Coursera. I have learned key lessons including calculating summary statistics from public health and biomedical data; interpreting written and visual presentations of statistical data; evaluating and interpreting results of various regression methods; and choosing the most appropriate statistical method to answer any research question.

"The epidemiology of dying within 48 hours of presentation to emergency departments: a retrospective cohort study of older people across Australia and New Zealand" This study was undertaken pre-COVID, and identified that over a quarter of this cohort died within 48 hours of presenting to ED. This article explores the difficulty health care staff experience in identifying imminent death, prior to transferring older adults to hospital. #agedcare #palliativecare #earlyidentificationofEOLCneeds #EOLCneeds epidemiology of dying within 48 hours of presentation to emergency departments: a retrospective cohort study of older people across Australia and New Zealand | Age and Ageing | Oxford Academic (oup.com)

I just obtained the specialization certificate for “Biostatistics in Public Health” from Johns Hopkins University which was offered by Coursera. The specialization certificate includes the courses: "Summary Statistics in Public Health, Hypothesis Testing in Public Health, Simple Regression Analysis in Public Health, and Multiple Regression Analysis in Public Health ". It is highly recommended to expand knowledge in Biostatistics.

I would like to share my certificate of Hypothesis Testing in Public Health which is second of the course of Biostatistics in Public Health Specialization from Johns Hopkins University

Excited to share that I’ve obtained a new certification: Biostatistics in Public Health Specialization from Johns Hopkins University! Delving into key topics like Summary Statistics, Hypothesis Testing, and Regression Analysis has been invaluable. Through this course, I've honed my skills in calculating crucial bio-statistical measures essential across various scientific domains. From interpreting statistical tests to analyzing research data, this specialization has equipped me with invaluable knowledge.

🤔 "Have you ever struggled with understanding research? I did too, until I completed a 6 weeks course on Clinical Research Basics!" Since starting my clear aligner journey, I’ve been diving into numerous articles but struggled to grasp the numbers and statistics behind them. That’s why I’m excited to share that I’ve just completed a course on Clinical Research and biostatistics . This course has demystified the stats, giving me the tools to better understand and apply research findings in my practice. Excited to see how this will enhance my work . Thanks Dr Juan Klopper for this great course! University of Cape Town Coursera #ClinicalResearch #ClearAligners #DentalResearch #ContinuousLearning
