Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoe Millard is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Cambridge with nine years’ experience applying computational ecology and data science to biodiversity challenges. He leads interdisciplinary projects that combine ensemble biodiversity models, meta-analyses, and novel data streams to improve global biodiversity monitoring and threat-response predictions. Previously he was a lead postdoc on NERC-funded GLiTRS at the Natural History Museum and built widely used tools such as the Species Awareness Index and a long-lived Shiny data-cleaning platform for UNEP-WCMC. Joe blends hands-on technical development with project leadership, mentoring over 20 students and organising major workshops and hackathons to translate research into operational monitoring systems. Unusually for an academic, he pairs ecological domain expertise with practical software delivery that has been adopted by policy and conservation partners.
