Very soon we will sadly say goodbye to Gina Geffers, who, along with Sam Hillman, have become our first Research Data Steward veterans. But we are very pleased to welcome two new stewards to the team this winter, Adam Threlfall and Yue Gu!

Adam Threlfall is a third-year PhD student in the Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences, working to improve analysis methods for retinal images, intending to use these

improved methods to find changes in the retinal blood vessels in connection with systemic diseases, using a combination of AI and classical image analysis applied to clinical datasets. Outside of work he enjoys cooking and going for long walks in the countryside with his partner and their greyhound, Indie.

Yue Gu is a final year PhD student in the School of Economics. Her research looks to apply advanced methods of microeconometrics to evaluate the impact of policies and early family environment on women’s economic outcomes in China using household survey data. Outside of university work she enjoys traveling, watching movies and discovering good food in Edinburgh.
