Alexandra Gushurst-Moore is the Research & Impact Coordinator of the Fitzwilliam Museum and Coordinator of Cambridge Visual Culture. Her doctoral thesis, entitled “The Making of Modern Fantasy in the Visual Arts of England, ca. 1850–1920”, was supervised by Elizabeth Prettejohn at the University of York. She holds an MA(Hons) from the University of Edinburgh and an MSt from the University of Oxford. Beyond her research, she has professional experience of and interest in British educational policy, the strategy and operation of HEIs and the facilitation of inclusive and supportive research cultures.

I provide Bioinformatic support for a few research groups in the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute. For the most part I deal with the analysis of single cell sequencing data, storage management of such data and the deployment of data processing pipelines into HPC environments.

Leontien Talboom is a technical analyst in the digital preservation team, located at Cambridge University Library. Her role involves transferring data from digital carriers (optical discs, hard drives, floppy disks, etc.) to a more secure digital repository.

I am a neuroscientist studying human speech perception with the aim of advancing assistive speech (neuro)technologies and AI speech recognition systems. My background is in cognitive neuroscience and medicine.

I am an expert in human neurophysiology methods (electro- and magnetoencephalography, EEG/MEG) combined with machine learning and artificial neural network modelling (deep learning).

Since the beginning of my PhD, I’ve been passionate about reproducible and open science practices such as data and code sharing, and good coding practices including version control. In my department I am leading the adoption of the standardised Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) for storing and sharing human neurophysiology (MEG/EEG) data.
