So, then, what happened is I wrote up this idea.

So instead, I decided to go for a lab.

What kind of shit research are you doing?

Video games lead to attention problems and greater distractability.

One of which he compared to chess, which is theoretical elegant cosmology, which is very precise and clean.

I predict scientifically 74 percent of you will go for bananas.

So experimentalists use randomized experiments.

Forecast

Clearly, it didn't come out of a Tonight Show monologue.

The Laboratory

All of it? The research, the blogs.

So, we thought we would exploit this idea in order to study whether we could predict phenomena within networks.

At the same time, we're also discovering how all our systems are connected and interdependent. Clearly, business as usual is a dead end.

How many masks do you need?

The laboratory, Wilma.

Merrick Institute.

Crazy house.

Ectoplasmic research.

In the lab.

I'm doing research for an article...

And in this case, it generates an electrical response that was large enough to measure with the Home depot ohmmeter that costs 50 dollars.

We need to discover what those differences are.

I'm eating right, I'm exercising every day, I'm keeping my mind active, that's what the research says you should do.

It was a concert he recorded in the Shrine Auditorium in 1949.

Chief Investigator

So this is a different approach.

And so I said, You know what?

(Laughter)

my research.

He worked out of Harvard.

He worked out of Harvard.

He's at my facility.

What are you gonna research?

A Study in Pink .

But I am also trying to make sanitary pad with the good cotton. It's not working.

Now, in addition to that, if you were an analyst who was trying to study an epidemic or to predict the adoption of a product, for example, what you could do is you could pick a random sample of the population, also have them nominate their friends and follow the friends and follow both the randoms and the friends.

So building community among those students, very important.

I worked on the environmental consequences of nuclear war.

These are old faculty salaries.

The first, I'll give you a couple of examples of randomized experiments.

XTide Tide Predictor

Monthly estimates

And the current state of the art in predicting an epidemic if you're the CDC or some other national body is to sit in the middle where you are and collect data from physicians and laboratories in the field that report the prevalence or the incidence of certain conditions.

More powerful than gun powder and extremely unpredictable, this highly explosive liquid captivated Alfred.

A few years back a group of researchers at University College London brought a bunch of memory champions into the lab.
