Hello!
I currently work for the European Bioinformatics Institute, and previously worked for the University of Edinburgh.
I participated in the editWikipedia4BlackLives edit-a-thon in June 2020, as well as 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.
If I've made a mistake or misinterpreted something in one of my contributions, please tell me! I'm more than happy to make corrections. :)
