Data Wrangler, Data for Research

Bio

Rachael is part of the Data for Research (Data Wrangling) programme at the The Alan Turing Institute, led by Ann-Marie Mallon. This team focuses on delivering research ready data. The provisioning of data is often the largest single hurdle for most analytical projects. The aim of the team is to remove this burden and provide tools, standards and processes for integrating and provisioning high-quality data. Since September 2022, Rachael has worked as a Data Wrangler in the Research Support Facility for the Artificial Intelligence for Multiple Long-Term Conditions (AIM) programme. In early 2024, Rachael joined Innovate UK BridgeAI as an Independent Scientific Advisor. 

Rachael trained as a Research Scientist, completing a PhD in neuroimaging, specialising in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). During her PhD and postdoctoral research, she studied the neural, vascular and metabolic function of the human brain and how these functions might be changed in multiple sclerosis.
