I am a Senior Enterprise Fellow at the University of Southampton, and a Pathfinder Lead on Process Recording for the Physical Sciences Data Infrastructure (PSDI) Initiative - www.psdi.ac.uk. I am part of the AIChemy Hub Team (run out of Imperial College London and the University of Liverpool), working on process recording and data management, and also coordinate the Future Blood Testing Network (www.futurebloodtesting.org) run out of the University of Reading. I also sit on the Advisory Boards for the Future Labs Live Conference in Basel, and the Machines Learning Chemistry Project at the University of Nottingham. I am also a regular columnist for the Lab Horizons Magazine, discussing important issues around process recording and FAIR data. Alongside my research I also supervise some brilliant PhD and Masters students in the areas of applying data science and computer science techniques to chemistry.
I mainly work in the interdisciplinary research area of applying computer science techniques to the scientific domain, specifically through the use of semantic web technologies and artificial intelligence. Her research encompasses all aspects of process recording, from the use of digital tools for scientists (including electronic lab notebooks), automatic metadata extraction, creating and enabling FAIR data and processes, and the role of voice and IoT technologies in the lab of the future. She has extensive experience in working with relational databases and knowledge graphs, and has also worked on a number of interdisciplinary Semantic Web projects in different domains, including agriculture, chemistry and the social sciences.
