Hosted by the ARDC’s Skilled Workforce Development Team, the ARDC National Skills Forum series is designed to shine a spotlight on the skills researchers need to use national research infrastructure and participate in a national research data commons. 🔗 Learn more + register now to join the forum now > https://lnkd.in/g8XzWYjx 🔴 Registration for ResBaz Victoria is now open! > https://lnkd.in/g9Fk77SP 🔴 Registration for Resbaz QLD is now open! > https://lnkd.in/gp_psVck

⚕️ Coming from a background in ecology and evolutionary biology, researcher and #ResearchSoftware engineer Dr Saras Windecker was drawn throughout her early work to thinking about tools and #research workflows more broadly than my specific use cases. "Problem solving about how to develop tools, workflows and #reproducible research pipelines has been extremely rewarding and transferable between disciplines," said Saras. A Senior Research Officer at The Telethon Kids Institute, Saras is actively involved in the #OpenResearch community and in promoting reproducible research practices. She uses her expertise in statistical #modelling and #software for applied research in #PublicHealth and ecology. "I contribute to numerous projects within the Infectious Disease Ecology and Modelling team and in collaboration with the Infectious Disease Dynamics Unit at the University of Melbourne. Throughout the #COVID19 #pandemic, infectious disease researchers in these groups developed models and research code to aid decision makers. I work closely with them to build infrastructure that operationalises these models, making them accessible for broader reuse." In addition to a number of projects that are closed source, Saras works on a number of #OpenSource software projects, including epiwave, an open source package tools for quantifying epidemic dynamics. It will allow users to build an infection inference model and estimate time series of daily new infections. "This package will be especially useful when case incidence data – the most commonly used source of information for estimating effective reproduction number – is unreliable or challenging to use but alternative data sources are available. "We envision epiwave as a next-generation surveillance tool that allows public health modellers and decision makers to make the best use of their available data to understand the dynamics of infections in their community." 🔗 Read more about epiwave and Saras in the latest edition of our interviews with leading #RSEs in Australia > https://lnkd.in/gAwjrtpy #RSE #ResearchSoftwareAU
