Summary
Florencia D'Andrea is a data manager and analyst with nearly a decade of experience at the intersection of computational biology, environmental risk assessment, and data science education. She holds a Ph.D. in Biological Sciences and has built tools to translate complex ecotoxicology research into actionable guidance for regulators and decision-makers. As a former UBC Master of Data Science instructor and postdoc, she blends pedagogy, curriculum design, and hands-on software development—mentoring capstone teams and teaching reproducible workflows, package development, and dashboarding. More recently she has produced R packages and R-Shiny apps that operationalize mobility and COVID-19 case data, and she is helping stand up the first data team at an Indigenous-led organization with attention to Indigenous data governance. Known for making technical topics accessible, she pairs rigorous scientific methods with community-minded teaching and open-source toolbuilding to solve real-world research problems.
