My @StanfordECHOLab group is hiring a Research Data Analysis (aka pre-doc) to work with us full time starting next summer. Our RAs are co-authors and treated as colleagues. Strong programming background in R or python is required. Plz apply or RT! careersearch.stanford.edu/jobs/research-…




Couple of wildfire papers out from our echo lab group this week. First one out yesterday, expertly led by @samheftneal @StanfordECHOLab , on smoke effects on emergency dept visits in California. Some surprises! Quick thread ttps://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2302409120





Yesterday was the 3rd worst wildfire pollution event in US history, we calculate, just behind 2 days in 2020 that hit the west coast. Don't have today's data yet, but it could be the worst. Pollution levels are lower in this ongoing event but many more people are exposed.




I'm hiring 2 full time RAs/pre-docs for a summer 2023 start date. You will work in a collaborative lab environment, and nearly all past RAs have had their names on multiple pubs. Coding experience in R/python desired. Plz retweet! #EconTwitter careersearch.stanford.edu/jobs/research-…

Before twitter implodes, please check out our new paper on using satellites+ML to do large-scale public policy evaluation. Application is to impacts of electrification expansion in Uganda. Great team effort led by @NWRAT + @atlasai_co . quick thread below. nature.com/articles/s4158…



Excited to share a new paper in @EGU_ACP. w/@NoelleSelin, Cory Zigler, we examine a question that everyone faces when 🔎 policy <--> air quality: how to correct for meteorology. In short, the common practice does not work well, and we have advice 🧵acp.copernicus.org/articles/22/10…
