PhD Research Data Analyst | Life Sciences, Health Data, Spectroscopy & Reproducible Python/R

Profile Summary

I am a PhD-trained research data analyst working across life sciences, health, food and analytical science. I help researchers and R&D teams turn scientific questions, datasets and published evidence into reproducible analyses and clear, usable results. My work includes: • scientific data analysis in Python and R, from data cleaning and exploratory analysis through modelling, validation, visualisation and reporting • literature and evidence synthesis for defined scientific or technical questions • VIS–NIR / hyperspectral spectroscopy and chemometrics, including preprocessing, feature selection, model validation and transferability assessment • analysis and interpretation of biological, health, environmental and agricultural datasets • independent review of analytical workflows, model validation, data quality and reproducibility • scientific and technical reporting, manuscript figures and bilingual English–Mandarin scientific communication My background spans genetics, biotechnology, nanoscience, biomedical imaging, microbiome research and analytical spectroscopy. I focus on applying established quantitative methods carefully and transparently rather than presenting myself as a theoretical statistician or machine-learning method developer. Typical deliverables include reproducible Python/R analyses, data-quality and validation reports, literature/evidence reports, publication-ready figures and technical research summaries.
