SMM4H-2024: The 9th Social Media Mining for Health Research and Applications Workshop and Shared Tasks — Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generalizability for Social Media NLP healthlanguageprocessing.org/smm4h-2024/

Our 9th Social Media Mining for Health Research and Applications (#SMM4H) Workshop, collocated @aclmeeting - focusing on Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generalizability for Social Media NLP in the realm of personal health. CFP and Shared Tasks are out! healthlanguageprocessing.org/smm4h-2024/?s=…

Dietary protocols designed to starve the body of glucose gained attention after studies found a link between fasting & longevity. Recent research suggests that cancer patients may also experience gains from fasting, especially while undergoing treatment. cedars-sinai.org/discoveries/fa…

"Among the most striking findings were clear signs that the cellular power plants, the mitochondria, are compromised and the tissue starved for energy." npr.org/sections/healt…

Very informative talk on using generative models for synthetic clinical data generation, advantages and ethical implications #AMIA2023

HLP Lab at #biocreative VIII at #AMIA @CedarsSinai CBM @gracielagon

Great session of #SMM4H 2023 under the leadership of @gracielagon at #AMIA2023 with keynotes from @RaulREsteban and @LuisMateusRocha

Dear @elonmusk: Twitter data for health research is unique for studying non-adherence. We found people alter their statin treatment, taking more or less depending on how they ate - not reported before. @NLM_NIH Enable #AcademicTokens for the #TwitterAPI jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Dear @elonmusk: API Basic accounts help, but academic researchers need access as it was. Social media provides a unique opportunity to unobtrusively include people and data not easily available to traditional studies, and complements them. Enable #OpenScience with #AcademicTokens

Dear @elonmusk: Academic researchers do not profit from Tweets. Grants are hard to get. We do science. Health science, for me. The voice of patients is KEY for understanding disease. Just search "I've been diagnosed with" for any disease. Enable #OpenScience with #AcademicTokens

Dear @elonmusk: I've been using Twitter data for health research since 2008. It provides insights into disease and treatments, beliefs and behaviors from the patient's perspective like no other data source can. Enable #OpenScience with #AcademicTokens

Twitter for practical medical education: because it works.

We have an open search for a collaborative biostatistician to join our faculty at @CedarsSinai! Please RT! jobs.amstat.org/jobs/17507972/… #biostatistics #statstwitter #epitwitter #datascience

@DrRobinStevens Happy birthday!
