🎯Aim: We wanted to examine and rank all 34 blood and urine biochemical biomarkers in the @uk_biobank for possible #causal relationships with #breastcancer liability in women.

2/11 Study overview of our study...
🧮Methods: Since experimenting on biomarkers in human participants poses ethical and practical questions, we instead performed a method called Mendelian Randomisation (MR)🧬.

MR uses observational data👀 and an instrumental variable (IV) framework to infer causality.

1-A lot of people sometimes contact me – for what is perhaps unique to #India!

They call it #HoroscopeMatching.

And it is undertaken mostly just before the marriage season commences – around the end of #October. (1/29)

2-Over the years I have gathered a certain little understanding about this beautiful aspect of #Vedic #Astrology

And today, we shall dwell a little on it (2/29)

#thumbrulesofastrology
3-Though, our #Scriptures have a very clear and definitive commentary on this aspect,

..I have found the works of Hart De Fouw particularly helpful for a #Learner.

Here is a #simplified version of the understanding. (3/29)

[Thread: 1]So this came in the mail today. Forprofit admissions consulting for colleges. Before we get to the politics and ethics, the false advertising is impressive: making #causal claims about the admissions risk ratio for their clients vs. average college admissions rates. Image
[2] Is it their services, parental wealth, willingness to spend middle & high school grooming for college, or other factors? (and they say odds for probabilities, but we'll give them that). When I say middle school I'm referring to "pre-application coaching" starting 8th grade Image
[3] They also teach you "strategic positioning" so your life history can match the alleged search image of the admissions officers: "each applicant stands out from the crowd."
