Data Science for Cellular Genomics
Developing data standards, workflows, infrastructure, and methods to enable interpretation, sharing, reuse, and integration of single-cell datasets.
Biography
I'm a researcher working on the COPO (Collaborative Open Plant Omics) platform; a tool for creating, depositing and searching for bundles of research objects.
I hold a First Class Honours degree in Computer Science and gained my
My current interests are in the fields of data science, open source and how to apply machine learning techniques in these areas to improve the tools available to researchers. I have industry experience working as a web developer in several start-ups and three years experience teaching to undergraduate level.
