Biography
I joined the Research Software Development Group in November 2016 after 12 years as a researcher at the University of Oxford. There I was joint lead developer for the Chaste computational biology software, and creator of the Cardiac Electrophysiology Web Lab. I also set up and led a cross-University network for Research Software Developers at Oxford, was co-Director of the Systems Biology Doctoral Training Centre, and lectured XML for Oxford's part-time MSc in Software Engineering.

I am interested in the application of software engineering to
computational biology, having worked mostly on the use of
domain-specific languages to describe mathematical models of biology,
and the tools required to make these usable for researchers. I now work as a Research Software Engineer more broadly, supporting researchers in developing high quality software to improve the reproducibility, sustainability and impact of their research.
