Data Scientist
Partnered with multi-disciplined personnel across international organisations to identify stakeholder needs, develop technical solutions, and streamline implementation. Architected data sets and workflows for assembling machine learning models for predicting antibiotic resistance. Engineered a dynamic organisational machine learning skills development programme for the Wellcome Sanger Institute, including the assembly of training modules, development of corresponding budgets, and opportunities for continuous improvement.

Key Achievements:

• Spearheaded educational activities for school students and the public on artificial intelligence, antimicrobial resistance and infectious disease, delivered online, in high schools, science festivals and campus open days.
• Developed lectures, masterclasses and workshops to introduce students to machine learning in biology, delivered at the Sanger Institute, University of Cambridge and other universities.
Interacted with Facebook’s Privacy department to determine the serviceability of user data in a global health context without compromising user privacy.
• Facilitator in World Health Organisation technical consultation on the use of whole-genome sequencing for the surveillance of antimicrobial resistance, helping coordinate discussions, developing summary recommendations, and offering technical expertise in bioinformatic prediction.
