Summary
Michael Jardine is a Senior Consultant and evolutionary biologist with a PhD from UCL and over a decade of research and teaching experience applied to real-world problems like sustainable antibiotic use. He has led multidisciplinary teams on large UKRI-funded projects, built NGS bioinformatics pipelines with QIIME2, Python and R, and translated complex data into published manuscripts and prize-winning conference outputs. Comfortable moving between academia, museums and consultancy, he has a proven track record of streamlining workflows, improving team communication, and delivering digitisation and outreach projects that attracted major funding. Keen to deepen his analytical and coding portfolio, he combines hands-on experimental skills (including engineering model organisms) with project leadership and a knack for turning bespoke research into scalable, collaborative solutions.
