Biography

I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Scott Polar Research Institute, where I use a combination of novel satellite imaging techniques, airborne geophysical observations and climate-ocean model data to investigate the key climatic drivers responsible for controlling the rapid deterioration of the Antarctic Ice Sheet since the onset of the satellite era (~1970-present). As such, I have a range of experience in the handling, processing and visualisation of complex geospatial datasets, and have experience in the usage of several different computer programming languages to do this. My experience also includes the long-term archiving and preservation of data to support scientific reproducibility, ranging from the publication of small, project-specific datasets to institutional collections (including assisting with the recent publication of SPRI’s historical Arctic airborne radio echo sounding data archives).

Biography

I'm a PhD student and Gates Cambridge Scholar studying psychology at St John's College. Broadly, I examine the psychometric properties of Internet big data; my current research explores how social media data predict personality traits and dimensions of mental illness. In general, I'm interested in social data science, the overlap of clinical disorders with everyday personality traits, and personality differences across cultures.

Biography

I primarily work with large-scale language datasets, using methods from quantitative and computational social sciences, as well as the digital humanities. I also teach associated research methods, like statistics, data wrangling, and visualization.

Outside my research, I am an active science communicator, primarily via two websites that I author: Effectiviology (https://effectiviology.com/), where I write about psychology and philosophy that have practical applications, and Solving Procrastination (https://solvingprocrastination.com/), where I write about what procrastination is, why we do it, and how to overcome it.

As a Data Champion, I focus on the use of quantitative and computational methods for working with data (e.g., for data wrangling and statistical analyses). I also deal with associated topics, like maximizing the impact of research through open research and science communication.
