Data Analyst & Automation Specialist | PhD in MRI Data Analysis with Python Expertise Professional overview: I’m a data analyst with a PhD in Medicine and a strong background in Physics. Over the past seven years, I’ve worked on data-focused projects, particularly in MRI and spectroscopy, using Python, MATLAB, and Bash scripting. My work involves developing tools, analyzing datasets, and creating solutions tailored to specific problems. What I can do for you: • Analyze and process large datasets with precision. • Develop custom tools, scripts, and simulations to streamline workflows. • Create clear visualizations and reports that are easy to understand. • Automate repetitive tasks to save time and reduce errors. Skills and tools: • Programming: Python (NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, TKinter), MATLAB, C++, Bash scripting. • Data Analysis: Statistical modeling, MRI/MRS data visualization, time series analysis. • Automation: Custom pipeline creation, GUI development, workflow optimisation. • Additional Tools: GitHub, LaTeX, Microsoft Excel. Examples of previous projects: • Python Simulation Tool: Developed a simulation for Magnetic Resonance coil optimization using finite element methods. • Spectral Data Analysis: Analyzed Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy data using MATLAB for Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) experiments, including peak detection and time-course plotting. • Custom Interfaces: Built a TKinter-based Python GUI for real-time visualization of spectral data. • Comprehensive MRI Pipelines: Automated and refined data analysis pipelines for structural, diffusion, and functional MRI data, contributing to GitHub repositories. If you have a project that requires custom solutions, data analysis, or automation, feel free to reach out. I’d be happy to discuss your needs and how I can help.
