Biography:

I have a background in biochemistry with a PhD in drug design and extensive experience as a clinical trialist. Later qualifications in computing have allowed me to apply the techniques of data science to medical problems. I’m now using machine learning to aid the discovery of immune correlates of protection (CoP). A CoP can act as a predictor of vaccine efficacy, and therefore guide decision-making in clinical development, licensing and deployment.

In an effort to make tools to identify CoP more widely available, I am developing an app that will make it easier for vaccine researchers to mine immune profile datasets for CoP. If this is the sort of app you think you might use, it would be great to hear from you.
