Jim Skinner

I have subitted my Thesis and am currently transitioning form PhD to PostDoc, and my new page is hosted here.

I am a final year PhD student interested in Machine Learning and Data Science, particularly with applications to medicine. I am supervised by (primary) and (secondary).

I am working with data from the Electronic Nose, using the "smell" of biological samples (blood, breath, stool, etc) to classify diseased from healthy patients. My research is to develop machine learning algorithms to get the most from this data, utilising our prior knowledge of the machine and the problem to produce novel statistical/machine learning tools.

I am interested in job opportunities (academic and non-academic); my CV is available here.
