Services
Research, data science and technical support, tailored to your project.
Whether you're working with a complex dataset, developing a research project or looking for a better way to manage and use your data, I can help you find the right approach.
I work internationally with researchers, businesses and organisations on projects of different sizes, from focused consulting and research advice to hands-on data analysis and bespoke software development.
Consulting & Research Support
Not every project requires a new piece of software or extensive analysis. Sometimes, you need an experienced perspective to assess your existing methods, understand your options or decide how best to proceed.
I can provide advice and guidance on:
Improving data collection, organisation, storage and processing
Selecting appropriate quantitative analysis and modelling methods
Developing, evaluating and testing calibration approaches
Understanding and interpreting results
Identifying limitations, potential improvements and next steps
Supporting researchers and teams with data science questions and research planning
Whether you're starting something new or reviewing an existing process, I can help you make informed decisions about your data and research.
Experienced advice to help you move forward
Data Engineering, Exploration & Optimisation
From complex datasets to meaningful findings
Good analysis depends on data that's appropriately prepared, processed and understood. I work with datasets at different stages, helping to organise information, identify patterns, develop models and produce reliable results.
Depending on your project, this may involve:
Cleaning, organising and preprocessing complex datasets
Exploring data to identify relationships, patterns and potential issues
Developing efficient, reproducible data processing pipelines
Multivariate modelling and quantitative analysis using open-source machine learning methods
Building, testing and evaluating calibration models
Optimising existing data processes and analytical methods
Interpreting findings and creating publication-quality figures, reports and scientific writing
My approach considers both the technical methods and the wider research context, ensuring the analysis is appropriate for the question being asked.
Custom Software Development
Bespoke tools for research and data processing
When existing software doesn't meet the needs of your research, I can develop custom solutions to help you work with your data more effectively.
This can include:
Bespoke Python programming for research applications
Tools for cleaning, transforming, analysing and visualising data
Automation of repetitive data processing tasks
Custom data pipelines and analytical workflows
Integration and interaction with SQL databases
Reproducible code, documentation and delivery through GitHub repositories where appropriate
The aim is to develop software that supports your research requirements and makes complex or repetitive processes easier to manage.
Working Together
Every research question comes with its own requirements, constraints and challenges. Some projects need a focused piece of advice, while others benefit from ongoing collaboration or a combination of consulting, analysis and software development.
I work directly with you throughout the project, providing regular, focused communication and keeping you informed of progress.
Depending on the work involved, deliverables may include analysed datasets, custom code, quantitative models, publication-quality figures, scientific writing or a comprehensive end-of-project report outlining the work completed, findings and recommended next steps.
Have a question you'd like
to answer with data?
You don't need to know exactly which service you require before getting in touch. Tell me about your research, the data you're working with or the problem you're trying to solve, and we can discuss how I might be able to help.
