University of Southampton

I am a Principal Enterprise Fellow at the University of Southampton. I am the Principal Investigator for the Careers and Skills for Data-driven Research Network (CaSDaR – www.casdar.ac.uk), the Pathfinder Lead on Process Recording for the Physical Sciences Data Infrastructure (PSDI) Initiative (www.psdi.ac.uk), and a researcher for the AI in Chemistry Hub (AIChemy – www.aichemy.ac.uk). I am keenly interested in all things related to data stewardship, data management, electronic lab notebooks, process recording, semantic web technologies and ethics. Please get in touch if you want to speak about any of these things.
