I am a doctor working in anaesthesia and intensive care medicine based in the UK in London. My research background is in the reuse of routinely collected longitudinal healthcare data for research. My interests are directed towards research goals that may be challenging to meet under traditional frameworks because anticipated effect sizes are very small, that it is too expensive to run a classical trial, or there are concerns over equipoise. My PhD investigated the safe limits—including addressing intrinsic biases—of these resources. This ties with my clinical interest in sepsis, where my research took steps towards a better understanding of "time zero" and the association between physiological trajectories and outcomes in sepsis.
As a past fellow of the Software Sustainability Institute, I am a strong proponent of open data, reproducible research and free1 and open software. When I am not tinkering with ventilators or R, I try to spend as much time as possible with my wonderful partner and children.
