    A gentle introduction to a fundamental concept. Definitely worth your time!
    Deductive reasoning pervades statistics and data science...but how far can it get us to the right conclusion from data? Elina Vessonen (Finnish Institute of Health) gives a great 20-minute presentation reviewing the role of deduction in scientific reasoning. Elina begins with a common statistical example and then covers common deductive fallacies and their role in science.
