Senior🎓
Top SchoolAmelia Edmondson-stait is a software developer and former post-doctoral researcher in mental health with nine years of experience applying statistical and epidemiological methods to real-world problems. She built the R Shiny app TIDAL to make longitudinal trajectory modelling accessible to non-specialists, hosted it on a virtual OpenStack server, and secured follow-on funding by demonstrating its clinical and research impact. Comfortable across R, Unix, Nextflow and GitHub workflows, she has created reproducible genomic analysis pipelines and taught best coding practices through funded workshops. Now transitioning into industry development and testing, she combines rigorous research habits with practical product delivery and a track record of collaborating with external developers and large interdisciplinary teams. An avid self-learner, she has translated domain expertise in neuroscience into user-focused software that bridges research and applied use.
