Stanford’s position on managing the pandemic in our community is clear. We support using masks, social distancing, and conducting surveillance and diagnostic testing. We also believe in the importance of strictly following the guidance of local and state health authorities. 2/3

It's been a busy morning for #NobelPrize winner Guido Imbens and his family! After waking everyone up when they heard the news shortly before 3 a.m., told their kids Andrew, Sylvia, and Carleton that they could decide if they wanted to go to school or not today.
