Jeremy is an Advanced Research Fellow in the Department of Computing and Director of Research Software Engineering Strategy at Imperial College London. He holds an EPSRC Research Software Engineering (RSE) fellowship, awarded in EPSRC’s 2nd RSE fellowships call in 2017. He has been actively involved in the building of communities that help bring together researchers and software developers from a wide range of research domains. He leads the Imperial Research Software Engineering Community which he founded in 2015, and also runs RSLondon, the regional research software community for London and the South East of England which he started in 2018.
Software Architect and Research Software Group (RSG) Lead
University of Southampton
CHARTED Roles: Project Co-Lead
Steve leads the Software Sustainability Institute’s RSG activities to help researchers improve their research software. His PhD in Computer Science, awarded by Southampton in 2001, focused on modeling development processes to support the capture of software requirements. He also teaches Large Scale Distributed Systems as part of Southampton’s BSc in Computer Science. Steve’s work at the Institute involves assisting researchers and their communities by consulting on software that is integral to their work.
Before joining the Institute, he worked as a software architect at OMII-UK and was involved in the RICES project that investigated information inconsistency problems in enterprise systems. He has also been involved in development and implementation for the Open Grid Forum, where he co-chairs two working groups in the areas of interoperability and data movement. Steve was also a work package leader for the IGE and OMII-Europe EU-funded projects.
Lucy has worked at EPCC since 2020 in a variety of roles, including data curation and service management of TRE (Safe Haven) projects using health and other sensitive data. She previously worked in clinical trials as a data and trials manager and as a programmer in the financial sector.
Scientific Community Manager
Department of Computing, Imperial College London
CHARTED Roles: Community Management
Eirini works as a Scientific Community Manager and she is based at Imperial College London. Eirini joined Imperial from the Alan Turing Institute, where she worked as a Research Community Manager supporting a consortium on AI and Multiple Long-term Conditions to work more collaboratively and reproducibly. She previously helped set up Open Science Community Nijmegen and R-Ladies Nijmegen.
Eirini holds a PhD from the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in Nijmegen, the Netherlands where she discovered her love for coding and all things reproducibility.
