Today, a group of UTPD dispatchers and officers climbed 110 flights of stairs, retracing the steps of the first responders who lost their lives at the World Trade Center. We pause to remember their sacrifice and the thousands they were trying to save. #September11

Operations Research is fundamentally about creating and applying mathematical tools to help people and organizations make better decisions. With #COVID19, #ClimateChange, #NationalSecurity threats, and natural #disasters, these decisions are more important than ever. #orms

We at INFORMS wish you all a very pleasant holiday. Although our ties to military history may not quite reach back to 1776, we're happy to say that #ORMS still is helping to defend our freedoms & propel the United States forward all these years later! bit.ly/2YPK7Sl

Lockdowns appear to have been highly successful in countering the spread of #COVID19, with researchers estimating that 60 million cases were prevented in the U.S. alone. Read the article for more (incl. input from INFORMS member, @jlswann). bit.ly/3hee45H #datascience

#COVID19 modeling research by @texas_IB and @ut_orie Prof. Lauren Meyers @meyerslab appeared in this weekend's @nytimes! Even in counties with no or few detected cases, the likelihood that there is currently community spread can be quite high.
A new study suggests that even in U.S. counties with a single reported coronavirus case, there's a more than 50% likelihood that a sustained, undetected outbreak — an epidemic — is already taking place.
