Description:

R is one of the leading programming languages in Data Science and the most widely used within Biologist and Healthcare professionals for interacting with, analyzing and visualizing molecular biology data sets.

In this training course, I aim to provide a friendly introduction to R (and will advance to other programming languages like Python, Ruby, Java, etc.) pitched at a beginners level but also for those who have been on R training courses previously and would like a refresher or to consolidate their skills.

13 Years of Experience

I am a Computational Biologist and a certified teacher. You can think of me as a biological detective who uses powerful computers, AI, and video-game logic to crack secret codes in our DNA and help fight diseases like cancer, malnutrition and diabetes.

Here is a quick snapshot of what I do:

🧬 Bioinformatics & Health: I build digital tools and use Machine Learning to read billions of pieces of medical data, helping doctors find the right cures faster.

💻 Software Engineering: I design the heavy-duty digital engines and secure databases that process complex hospital and laboratory data.

🎮 Biology Gaming: For my younger students (and those young at heart!), I love creating custom video games about biology so you can playfully step inside a living cell to learn how it works.

🏏 When I'm Not in the Lab...

You can find me playing the piano 🎹,

Heading out for a day of angling (fishing) 🎣,

Playing a match of cricket 🏏 or badminton 🏸, or diving into my favorite video games 🎮.
