I'm a Lecturer and research fellow at the University of Queensland's School of Veterinary Science. I am broadly interested in exploring new ways to (1) understand how ecological communities are formed and (2) predict how they will change over time.
- ๐ ๏ธ I maintain the R ๐ฆ {mvgam} for Bayesian time series modelling and forecasting. Here is an introductory webinar showing what mvgam does
- ๐น I also teach workshops on Generalized Additive Models (GAMs) and time series analysis
- ๐ฌ Ask me about coffee, tennis and quantitative ecology
- ๐ป I mostly program in R and Stan, and maintain a small blog on modeling with these tools
- ๐ Pronouns: He / Him
I'm actively seeking Honours and PhD students to work in the areas of ecological forecasting, multivariate model evaluation, hierarchical GAMs and development of {mvgam}. Please reach out if you are interested
