Vinay Prasad: Most big data papers are awful

Vinay Prasad, Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California San Francisco, made the following post on Twitter:

“Most big data papers are awful
My favorite is when researchers look at hundreds of hospitals and make up stories as to why some do better than others and never consider that all the variation is chance.”
