@DavidBuil Sure. 😊

@JINGFENGRUI Hey Fengrui. Are you in Guangzhou? Shall we meet for a coffee? ☕️

@DavidBuil Thanks David!

@JINGFENGRUI Congrats, Fengrui :)

Personal update: I have joined as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine at Jinan University, China this Fall. Grateful for the support from my advisors, friends, and family! Looking forward to this new chapter in my academic career! 😊

@SaraJaaksola Thanks Sara!

@JINGFENGRUI Congratulations!

“Ten years ago I was kicked out and forced to retire.” Our new medicine laureate Katalin Karikó (@kkariko) told us how much it means to be awarded the Nobel Prize after a scientific career that has been full of challenges. Ten years ago, Karikó was still doing all her experiments by hand but today she has been awarded the medicine prize for her research on mRNA, which led to the development of COVID-19 vaccines.

I am glad to share the latest research, which explores the tract-level spatiotemporal association between immigrant concentration and mental health service visitation in the US using geospatial big data. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Thanks for the opportunity @PubHealthPost to share our research and insights with a wider audience. Twitter-Based Place Connectivity, Concentrated Disadvantage, and COVID-19 Fatality publichealthpost.org/research/twitt…

Wow, it's awesome that Mr. Macron visited my alma mater, Sun Yat-sen University, during his trip to Guangzhou, China!

@DavidBuil Haha! some Dim Sum? Check out Guangzhou Jiujia (广州酒家) or Dian Du De (点都德). Also gotta try the Chaoshan beef hotpots (潮汕牛肉火锅) - they're popular. For street food, hit up Shangxia Jiu (上下九）Road or Jiangnan Xi (江南西) Road - both iconic!😋

@JINGFENGRUI Thanks a lot! I'd appreciate some recommendations of dim sum restaurants👏

Really excited to share that I'll be a visiting researcher at the Guangdong Engineering Research Center for Public Security and Disasters of Sun Yat-sen University! I'll spend a few weeks in Guangzhou🇨🇳 in summer collaborating on research projects around fear of crime measurement

@DavidBuil Maybe not this summer, but I might come back in 2024. Have fun there and try the local food! Let me know if you need any recommendations.

@JINGFENGRUI Thanks Fengrui! Are you planning to spend the summer in Guangzhou? :)

@Mokafu0225 @CNN Haha. Great idea.

@CNN Ok, US don’t want TikTok then let them use Douyin. Basically the same thing with more censorship and restrictions.

The wildly popular platform, developed with homegrown Chinese technology, isn’t accessible in China. In fact, it’s never existed there. cnn.it/3K8R8W4

#AAG2023 organized a virtual AAG session this afternoon. Thanks to four speakers, who showed very diverse research/projects on Geography and mental health/emotion! The recorded video of the session is available on the website: aag.secure-platform.com/aag2023/solici… @jessiehong14 @piyusha09

I'm glad to share my latest paper on measuring fear of crime. It's an interesting topic. Exploring large-scale spatial distribution of fear of crime by integrating small sample surveys and massive street view images - Fengrui Jing et al, 2022 journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
