This work with @DavidJPOS and @gleesonj is now on arXiv (arxiv.org/abs/2212.00584): "A generating-function approach to modelling complex contagion on clustered networks with multi-type branching processes" Here is a quick overview of our paper: (1/6)

Here is my poster for the @Young_Stats_ISA conference on "Penalized power-generalized Weibull distributional regression". Work with @Shirinmgh and Kevin Burke. Very much looking forward to seeing all the other great posters today!😊#YISAPoster2022

@emollick @PadraigMacC nice to see this great paper appearing again!

The limiting factor on relationships is your time. A study of 6 billion phone calls finds Dunbar’s Number of 150 relationships holds. Generally: 💏5 very close ones 👭10 close 👯‍♀️35 fairly close 👥100 acquaintances So when you add a romantic partner, you lose a very close friend!

Tune into @GameOn2FM from 6:20 to hear about how networks can help in ranking Snooker players - very timely with the ongoing World Championships!

@TicketManUtd @ZeeMUFC @DaytrippingRed Yes please!

@PadraigMacC Take every opportunity you can to sneak some Bruce in.

@obrienj_ Love it!! Not sure how I can use this but need to do stuff on R for my upcoming modules so will have to try to work this in!

@jslbutler Delighted to hear! Informing the up and coming about the greatness of the Boss is all I can ask for.

@obrienj_ I love it. Somehow I’ll work it into my stats course. It will be peak middle aged man talks about stats and music.
