      Even over die awesome foto van dat zwarte gat. In mijn krant ging het uitgebreid over de (mannelijke) astronomen Shep Doeleman en Heino Falcke. Maar het was deze vrouw, wetenschapper Katie Bouman, die de ontwikkeling leidde van het algoritme dat die foto mogelijk maakte. Dus.pic.twitter.com/58sK5CJciX

      There are more of us. Katie's algorithm, despite the media's stance, was not used to produce this image. There were three algorithms used and combined to form the final image, and a team of 40 scientists part of that aspect of the project (including myself and more women).

          Katie was one of the leads of this aspect of the project, together with four other people, here are their names: Andrew Chael, Kazunori Akiyama, Michael D. Johnson and Jose L. Gomez. This is a group effort, there is no one person who made this happen.

          Two questions, if you don't mind. Just proceeding from here. https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8213/ab0e85 … 1. Did the four teams working in the blind remain intact for the second stage, or was that a different effort? 2. Was CHIRP or some derivative employed by any of the teams?

          I ask because CHIRP seems to be one of the seven "forward modeling methods [that] have been intensively developed for the EHT." 1. https://dspace.mit.edu/openaccess-disseminate/1721.1/103077 … 2. https://dspace.mit.edu/openaccess-disseminate/1721.1/103077 …pic.twitter.com/9lygJIbyBf

          Two forward modeling softwares (out of the three in the M87 imaging paper) were used, eht-imaging and SMILI. The work after the blind imaging stage was a combined effort from the whole imaging group!

          I encourage people to have a look at the papers themselves (the true fruit of our effort), they are far more informative than we could ever be on Twitter.

          People are using this tweet as a way to attack Katie and I don't think that was your intention. She herself has said that it was a team effort.

          This is not Katie's fault but due to extremely misleading PR she had no involvement in that was blown out of proportion and harming all involved. Katie is a wonderful, smart and passionate scientist and I love working with her.

          But it's important to set the facts straight and let the collaboration and its people be heard and celebrated for their true accomplishments as part of the many challenging aspects of this project.

We didn't want any one person or algorithm to be the first one to make the image."

          #katiebouman Be concerned with media pushing for 1 person for all the credit for years work spent. Also be concerned with one person not setting the record straight.

          It’s totally obvious what she means when she says “I“ there, it means she executed a run of the software which they all developed together and she is simply seeing her first run of that. Cool concern trolling from you though. Seriously, go eat a bowl dicks and self-destruct, bruh

          Strange, there seems to be a narrative that it was Katie's algorithm. Did Katie ever set the record straight and say it was someone elses? "Katie's algorithm, despite the media's stance, was not used to produce this image"
