With Drs. David Castle and Peter Phillips - Beyond Endless Frontiers (BEF) (SSHRC PDG #1182394) - responsible for drafting a scoping review and discussion paper and, assistance in roundtable facilitation. Our team, one of six across the BEF project, is aiming to better understand Mission-Driven research, its cognates, and how they might contribute to a renewed, 21st century, science-society contract. 

Software / Coding

The vast majority of my coding and quantitative work is conducted via R. However, as needed, I also use STATA (typically for panel work), Julia (for Bayes and more abstract mathematical work) and Python (especially for scraping, cleaning and working with large data). 

Other

I manage the Twitter/BlueSky accounts and help with the newsletter for the Institute 4 Replication (@I4Replication), under the direction of Dr. Abel Brodeur.
