GI Bleed Overview

Rosalind Franklin University Flipped Classroom

The fine folks at Rosalind Franklin University invited me to speak on the Flipped Classroom and the use of technology. You can flip through the slides below or the handout here. You can also download them as a PPTX or PDF file if you’d like. I made some changes from the Rush talk.
Why Confidence Intervals are better than P-values

Freakonomics and EBM

There’s a great podcast focusing on popular uses of economics.
