I'm an @UniOfHull doctoral research student and Dad with passions for science, computing, and all things geeky! Founder of @pyOpenSci, and supporter of #OpenScience, #OpenData,and #OpenHardware. Married to @KelseyMoss_ :D

I work within the @EvoHull lab under the supervision of @davelunt and @domino_joyce. I utilise in silico techniques to perform large-scale comparisons of whole-genomes in order to elucidate the evolutionary processes that have shaped their architecture.

I investigate the forces driving the evolution of genomes and those genomic changes which underlie organismal adaptations. This primarily involves the investigation of introns, transposable and repetitive elements, and duplications. In addition to this I have been involved in collaborative research with variouseminent scientists, particularly surrounding computational ecology and ecoinformatics projects. For further details of my research, keep an eye on my Google Scholar page.

My research and general interests cover a wide range of topics including, but not limited to anthropology, archaeology, artificial intelligence, bioinformatics, cultural and social evolution, comparative genomics, computational biology, computational ecology, data science, data visualisation, ecoinformatics, education, evolutionary computation, evolutionary genomics, genome informatics, machine learning, medicine, mental health, molecular evolution, phylogenetics, phylogenomics, phyloinformatics, and statistics.
