RIP .. really sad for the great loss
I am incredibly sad to learn of the passing of Atul Butte. He was a true giant in our field and a profound inspiration to me and countless others. His vision and contributions have fundamentally shaped biomedical data science. I will miss his boundless energy. RIP my friend.

"It is critically important that we raise our voices in support of innovative cancer science and medicine." @AACRPres Patricia M. LoRusso, DO, PhD (hc), FAACR, calls on the #AACR25 delegates to stand together and call on Congress to make cancer research a national priority.
60 years ago this month, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) was introduced by Cooley & Tukey (1965) - one of the most important algorithms in signal processing and data analysis. In 1805, Gauss - studying the orbits of asteroids Pallas and Juno - came up with a method to…

And for group matches, every team should be grouped into pools using a lucky draw! Its NOT always necessary to purposely put #IND and #PAK in the same pool just for the sake of earning money through TV commercials!
To maintain the integrity of the @ICC and any future global tournaments, we cannot have any one single team completely dictating the logistics of the competition, as has happened in #ChampionsTrophy2025. We either play the game with fair rules for all - or we don't bother.
