Hello!
I currently work for the
European Bioinformatics Institute , and previously worked for the
University of Edinburgh .
I participated in the

SACNAS x 500 Women Scientists edit-a-thon , and recently the
Women in STEM Connect edit-a-thon . I also organised the
EUSci wiki edit-a-thon in collaboration with the University of Edinburgh's Wikimedian in residence.
