Abstract: Measurement error is pervasive in epidemiologic research. Epidemiologists often assume that mismeasurement of study variables is non-differential with respect to other analytic variables and then rely on the heuristic that "non-differential misclassification will bias estimates… read more here.

Abstract: Yland et al. bring renewed attention to the oft cited heuristic nondifferential misclassification biases results towards the null. They make a compelling case, as others before, that this heuristic is misguided. Herein, I briefly discuss… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract A soft presentation of hyperbolic spaces (as metric spaces), free of differential apparatus, is offered. Fifth Euclid’s postulate in such spaces is overthrown and, among other things, it is proved that spheres (equipped with… read more here.
