bio: |
    I am a Research Data Scientist at The Alan Turing Institute. I hold a PhD in Particle Physics from Université Paris Diderot where I worked on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.
    During my PhD I participated in the discovery of the Higgs Boson particle announced by CERN in 2012.
    I continued working on ATLAS as a postdoc with Uppsala University where I focused on searches for physics beyond the Standard Model of Particle Physics.
    Right before joining the Turing, I worked as a Data Scientist in the EdTech sector developing innovative products focused on the assessment process in education.
    Currently I’m working in collaboration with researchers from the Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter called Data Science for Sustainable Development.
    In this project we are using remote sensing to monitor the resilience of patterned vegetation from semi-arid dryland ecosystems in the Sahel.
highlights: |
    I think The Turing Way is an excellent resource that can change the way science is done (I wish I had it when I started my PhD!).
    Although the international language of science is English, I know for a fact that not everyone in places like Latin America has the time and resources to learn it, so I think we must do everything we can to break those barriers and improve the accessibility of knowledge for everyone.
    This is my motivation to translate the book to Spanish, and I hope that the Spanish version will be used as an important resource on the master course we are developing in the LA-CoNGA physics project.

    I’m from Venezuela, and although I have done most of my career in Europe I’ve been always keen to stay connected to the academic and scientific world back in Latin America.
    I’m the co-founder of the CEVALE2VE project (http://www.cevale2ve.org/en/home/), which of a virtual learning community that aims to tackle the serious issue of brain-drain in some Latin-American countries by bringing back the knowledge in a digital/online platform.
    More recently that project has become consolidated into LA-CoNGA physics (http://laconga.redclara.net/), an EU Erasmus+ funded project with a mission to create a Latin American and European Community for Advanced Physics.
    In this project I’m helping to build a data science module that will be taught in an online master course.

    Core Member, Netherlands eScience Center Representative (2020-Present);
    Book Dash Participant (2020);
    Book Dash Planning Committee (2021);
    Community Manager for eScience Center
github: c-martinez
orcid: 0000-0001-5565-7577
bio: |
    Carlos obtained his PhD in Computer Science at the University of Exeter. Afterwards, he worked on various research projects at the University of Exeter and Plymouth University. At the eScience Center, he has worked as an engineer on diverse projects in digital humanities and life sciences, developing expertise in natural language processing, linked open data and software sustainability. He is also a certified Software Carpentry instructor and is frequently involved in organising training.
highlights: |
    We always advocate for software reuse and collaborative development of software. I love that we can do the same for software development guidelines: reuse content from the eScience guide and collaboratively develop with _The Turing Way_ community!
more: |
    I am a big advocate of improving software quality. I am really glad that the eScience Center is collaborating with _The Turing Way_ in providing guidelines and helping build better research software.

roles: |
    Book Dash Participant (2023)
github: CeilidhWelsh
orcid: 0000-0002-7332-7392
bio: |
    Ceilidh is a PhD student in the Department of Oncology at the University of Cambridge, funded by Cancer Research UK RadNet. She investigates predictive biomarkers for radiotherapy response in head-and-neck cancer. She was awarded the Alan Turing Institute Enrichment Scheme Award for 2022/2023, where she explored her interests in data ethics, data reproducibility and community-led data science projects.
highlights: |
    Learning about _The Turing Way_ project and how community-led science can produce and sustain projects that bring people together.
    Co-authoring the [Data Hazards Chapter]{ref}`er-datahazards` with [Susana Roman Garcia](https://github.com/Susana465), [Natalie Zelenka](https://github.com/NatalieZelenka), Irma Hafidz and many more incredible people doing incredible things that helped us along the way!
    Completing the Data Hazards Chapter, creating my first pull request *and* having it merged! All of this would not be possible without the support of Susana both during and outside the Book Dash(s).
    Most of all starting to contribute to this wonderful project!

    Handbook Collaborator and Contributor, SciLifeLab Representative;
    Head of Open Science, SciLifeLab Data Centre
orcid: 0000-0003-2554-180X
bio: |
    Christopher Erdmann is a community advocate, developer, and experimenter in the areas of Open Science and FAIR. Prior to joining the SciLifeLab Data Centre as the Head of Open Science, he was the Associate Director for Open Science at the Michael J. Fox Foundation where he drove open science strategies and workflows to support the Foundation’s policies. He has previously worked for organizations such as the American Geophysical Union, Renaissance Computing Institute at UNC, California Digital Library (The Carpentries), North Carolina State University, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, European Southern Observatory, Supreme Court of the US, United Nations, University of Washington, Smithsonian, and CNET. Christopher holds an MLIS from the University of Washington iSchool and a BA from the University of California, Davis.
highlights: |
    The Turing Way Handbook is an invaluable resource for researchers worldwide looking to learn more about reproducible, ethical and collaborative data science. I am looking forward to our collaboration with The Turing Way to learn from their community, help further the Handbook as a community resource, and leverage it in our own endeavours at the SciLifeLab (Data Centre).

bio: |
    I am a Senior Researcher in Trustworthy Systems at the Alan Turing Institute, in the Tools, Practices, and Systems programme. I also lead the Innovation and Impact Hub for the Turing’s Research and Innovation Cluster in Digital Twins (TRIC-DT).
highlights: |
    Hearing about the diversity of contributions made by all the other book dash participants, and being exposed to novel ways to run an online and collaborative session.
    It was great to be able to block out time to do this—as always, making time and space for specific pieces of work is really important. Unfortunately, life got in the way on the final day, and I had to miss the share-out to look after my daughter. But I managed to tune in from my phone for a bit of it, and it was great to hear from everyone else.
    I didn't finish what I had intended to do, but have made a really solid start and look forward to using the Collaboration Cafes to continue developing the relevant chapter.
