Data Champions Search

In my role as Library Manager (Biological Sciences) I support STEMM students and researchers across the School of Biological Sciences. I have worked in a variety of different roles over the years and have worked with different groups such as business students and polar scientists. I teach regularly on various research topics and manage library services in the departments of PDN, Genetics, Plant Sciences and Zoology.

Additional areas of expertise:

Social media use in research, Research communication and outreach, Public engagement, Creative Commons, Open sharing.

I’ve been working in the Department of Psychiatry for almost a decade now. I specialise in improving process and workflow and in research data management. I also work in branding, digital recruitment, website design and administration, social media management, and data architecture. I am particularly good at thinking of new and creative solutions to emerging problems. I am currently working on ways to govern and organise the many research projects within my department and in the School of Clinical Medicine, and on creating ways to share research and imaging data (MRI, PET etc) openly.
