  8. Data Analysis for the Life Sciences
    Data Analysis for the Life Sciences
    Rafael A Irizarry and Michael I Love

    Data analysis is now part of practically every research project in the life sciences. In this book we use data and computer code to teach the necessary statistical concepts and programming skills to become a data analyst. Instead of showing theory first and then applying it to toy examples, we start with actual applications and describe the theory as it becomes necessary to solve specific challenges. The book includes links to computer code that readers can use to follow along as they program.

    Thinking with LLM, the right way
    Strengthening critical thinking with generative AI — without being used by it
    Francesco Fullone

    "The AI confirmed X for me" used as proof of X. Outputs that sound brilliant but don't hold up to a severe re-reading. A three-page "AI policy" that nobody reads. Sound familiar? Thinking with LLMs, the Right Way is the system of critical thinking applied to LLMs: the Thinking-With Triangle (Intent / Adversary / Editor), the four meta-decisions of governance, the Socratic and adversarial practices for investigating and verifying. Not prompt engineering: the method for not letting yourself be mirrored.
