This should be required viewing for every class on probability.

Evelyn Kitagawa of the University of Chicago developed the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition analysis in 1956, roughly 20 years before Oaxaca and Blinder did. I didn't know this until a student with a background in sociology pointed this out to me. Wikipedia does not elaborate much on

In ancient Greece, women were forbidden to study medicine for several years until someone broke the law. Born in 300 BC, Agnodice cut her hair and entered Alexandria medical school dressed as a man. While walking the streets of Athens after completing her medical education, she

excited to see the physical copy of the book; nervous about the potential errors. Comments are welcome.

We are proud that MPIM Director and HCM member Dennis Gaitsgory led a nine-person team of mathematicians that settles the geometric Langlands conjecture. The proof is the culmination of a research program that spanned three decades. Read the full story: quantamagazine.org/monumental-pro…

Happy Birthday to the legendary Apollo project programmer and computer scientist, Margaret Hamilton. 🎉

Nice to see this project reach its full completion: a really enjoyable collaboration, now published and available (journal version at doi.org/10.1093/jrsssc…, arXiv version at arxiv.org/abs/2308.02414). Potentially a fun introduction to modern state-space models for sports fans!

🚨Excited to share our latest publication in the Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C titled “An Adaptive Functional Regression Framework for Locally Heterogeneous Signals in Spectroscopy.” 1/n doi.org/10.1093/jrsssc…
