We barely had a winter wave of COVID this year but the flu has been absolutely brutal www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

Flu has overtaken covid in emergency rooms during the past two winters

Hospital numbers don’t capture how most people actually experience these illnesses: minor inconveniences or nasty bugs that leave you feeling lousy and homebound. Wastewater tracking, which measures viral particles in sewers to track viral trends, also shows that flu has surged and covid has seen a small uptick, smaller than the summer wave.

Remembering Dr. Maryam Mirzakhani on #WorldCancerDay. Dr. Mirzakhani was first woman to win the Fields Medal, the most prestigious award in #mathematics. She died in 2017 from #breastcancer at the age of 40. stanford.io/2C0io2A #WomenInSTEM

A vibrant, composite portrait of the brilliant Iranian mathematician Maryam Mirzakhani (1977–2017), the first woman and first Iranian to win the Fields Medal. She is shown in a close-up head-and-shoulders view, facing the camera with a gentle, thoughtful expression—short brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a calm smile. She wears a navy blue fleece over a teal/green collared shirt. Overlaid transparently behind and around her is a dense blackboard filled with intricate handwritten mathematical equations in white chalk, featuring complex expressions involving binomial coefficients (e.g., n! / (k!(n-k)!)), factorials, summations, powers, and terms suggestive of hypergeometric series or combinatorial identities. The equations partially surround and frame her face, symbolizing her deep immersion in advanced mathematics, particularly in hyperbolic geometry, Teichmüller theory, and dynamical systems, while evoking the creative, exploratory nature of her work as a Stanford professor and groundbreaking researcher.
