Some items to watch
- The UK Meteorological Office has put up a questionnaire on different ways of communicating uncertainty in short-term weather forecasts. I know which ones I prefer, but won't try and influence anyone [this site may go down temporarily, but should be available by Friday 15th January]
- This year's Darwin lecture series in Cambridge is on Risk: 8 speakers on all aspects, starting on January 15th.
- There is an excellent blog from the Genetic Geneologist (Blaine Bettinger) that very generously puts up details of their increased risk of Type 2 diabetes obtained from genome scans from two companies using a variety of communication formats.
