Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

T Carl Moore Lectureship in Family Medicine honours Dr Carl Moore, a former Chair of the Department of Family Medicine at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ont. It was a privilege to host Dr David Kuhl as guest speaker for the fi fth annual Carl Moore Lectureship. He spoke about “Facing Death; Embracing Life.” He received his medical degree from McMaster in 1985 and is now a palliative care physician based in British Columbia. Dr Kuhl has helped develop palliative care programs for St Paul Hospital and for Providence Health Care. In 1996, Dr Kuhl became a Soros Faculty Scholar on the Project on Death and Dying in America. His qualitative study explored the spiritual and psychosocial issues patients have at the end of life and produced a book, What Dying People Want; Practical Wisdom for the End of Life.1,2 Dr Kuhl has worked to improve understanding of the challenges people face as death draws near.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
