Beating the Streak: 2022 Update
Making progress towards winning the prize. Aug 11, 2022
Well it's been over a year since my last blog post, but that isn't entirely unexpected. It's been a busy first year of the PhD with grant submissions, publications, and courses, and I haven't found a subject worth writing about in that time. I also have not beaten the streak and therefore am not a multi-millionaire, but that probably isn't a surprise either. Nonetheless, I'm now back with an update on my progress towards that goal, as well as some next steps and code for you to play around with if you are so inclined.
Beating the Streak: Intro
Winning millions by studying baseball June 12, 2021
There's an argument to be made that hitting a baseball is the hardest thing to do in sports. Over the past 10 years, the major league batting average has hovered around 0.25, meaning that just a quarter of at bats result in a baseball being hit. A really good batter might average somewhere in the .300s, and a batter has not ended the season with an average over .400 since 1922.
Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
Will doctors be replaced by robots? May 19, 2021
The beginnings of modern computational artificial intelligence can be traced back to the mid to late 20th century as basic machine learning algorithms and deep learning frameworks began to be developed. Even as early as the 1970, an article in the New England Journal of Medicine titled "Medicine and the computer — the promise and problems of change" began to predict the promise that advanced computation might have on the field of medicine.

Just a place for some musings and ideas as I go through grad school. I'm far from an expert on anything at the moment, but hopefully I can provide some unique perspectives on things that I'm interested in.
