Our friends over at @wearecognitive have been sharpening their pencils again, to bring you a handy breakdown of our recent event 'A Blueprint for a Good Society' with @NAChristakis ✏️✏️ #RSAbridges pic.twitter.com/9NSuXcbypC
2020-06-06 01:44:06@KaraHenderson So hard to say. Here are six that affect me, classics: Iliad. Last Days of Socrates. Hundred Years of Solitude. Pride and Prejudice. Origin of Species. On Liberty. And: Stumbling on Happiness. Guns Germs Steel. Righteous Minds. No Magic Bullet. Language Instinct.
2020-04-11 10:54:03Hospitals Must Let Doctors and Nurses Speak Out “Clamping down on people who are speaking is a kind of idiocy of the highest order.” I spoke to @conor64 @TheAtlantic because I feel very strongly that we will not beat COVID19 with censorship. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
2020-04-10 22:36:56"We're experiencing something that's very unusual in the history and life of our species: the introduction of a new pathogen that has entered our species and will circulate widely among us," @NAChristakis said in conversation with @McCormickProf. thepublicdiscourse.com/2020/04/62065/
2020-04-08 03:12:56ICYMI: Health behaviors are contagious through social networks. @NAChristakis discusses #COVID19 contagion, social distancing, and the pandemic. From Tuesday March 31 ja.ma/christakis
2020-04-02 00:42:10As one of the nation's leading experts on the topic, Dr. Nicholas Christakis (@NAChristakis) joins us on this week's podcast to discuss the start and spread of #Coronavirus and what we can do to limit the number of cases moving forward. whoop.com/the-locker/pod… pic.twitter.com/ZbAkefzztF
2020-03-26 00:27:17If the school is simply unable or unwilling to close, though I think they should, there are a few things it can do to reduce social contact at the school, and which it should therefore do right away. Some ideas in @TheAtlantic with @ErikaChristakis: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/… 20/
2020-03-16 20:33:40In this thread, I collect the threads about #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 that I have prepared on various aspects of the coronavirus pandemic. Please note that the situation is fluid and knowledge may change and be updated. Feel free to suggest topics in response to this tweet. 1/

2020-03-16 22:17:26I apply some of the themes in BLUEPRINT: THE EVOLUTIONARY ORIGINS OF A GOOD SOCIETY to the COVID-19 pandemic here: washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…. The spread of germs is the price we pay for the spread of ideas, and for living socially. | @PostOpinions @littlebrown #BLUEPRINTbook
2020-03-12 01:37:23An extended conversation w @SamHarrisOrg about how we might cope with COVID-19, from epidemiological and policy perspectives. We also discussed how evolution placed us at risk for epidemics, but equipped us w tools to fight them, themes in #BLUEPRINTbook. samharris.org/podcasts/190-r…
2020-03-11 01:22:37On the publication this week of the paperback version of NYT bestselling BLUEPRINT: THE EVOLUTIONARY ORIGINS OF A GOOD SOCIETY, amazon.com/Blueprint-Evol…, I was honored to talk with @kristatippett on @onbeing: "How We’re Wired for Goodness" onbeing.org/programs/nicho… @NPR @littlebrown
2020-03-06 22:53:29I think it’s likely that the COVID-19 epidemic could be as severe as to claim 35,000 lives in the USA this year. It could be less severe, of course! Or more. It’s still hard to say. 1/
2020-02-28 12:53:08@GabrielRossman @sensibleid @Cridmo @SwipeWright That's right. Two issues here: 1) that our restriction of exposure helped create the real epidemic, and 2) that there were 'copycat' cases of people who were not truly severely allergic and an 'epidemic of anxiety.' This was known for very long. bmj.com/content/337/bm…
2020-02-27 23:59:39In epidemics, social contagion in behavior (eg, self-isolation, vaccination) often is dueling with biological contagion in pathogens, and each contagion 'interferes' with the other. #DuelingContagion Our 2017 @SciReports paper from #HNL on how: nature.com/articles/srep4… #COVID19 pic.twitter.com/6bAbkT6OHF

2020-03-06 22:53:29"In my laboratory, we’ve developed software that allows us to create temporary artificial societies of real people... where we can organize societies in which the wealth is equally or unequally distributed."- @NAChristakis bit.ly/2OP0EAQ

2020-01-24 04:28:27I’m honored that #BLUEPRINTbook is being translated into Arabic by @IdeasB2 — an organization worth supporting. twitter.com/faisalalmutar/…
2019-12-24 08:34:42Some people ask me, who funds your organization Ideas Beyond Borders @IdeasB2 that have translated more than 5 million words into Arabic in articles and books? And what if I told you that Professor Steven Pinker of Harvard University is a major funder of it and he will match pic.twitter.com/ZdrZaMg2Lz

2019-12-15 17:30:46If you are so confident in the truth of what you say, go out and win the battle of ideas. You might even learn something from your opponents' ostensibly false ideas. Short clip from my longer interview at @bigthink bigthink.com/videos/debate-…
2019-12-07 03:47:04I just listened to @NAChristakis' great interview on @HdxAcademy's podcast. It was hopeful and uplifting. And, despite the gloom everywhere, makes sense. We are evolved to help one another. heterodoxacademy.org/podcast-hhh-59…
