Data Insights Engineer at Flatiron Health
Sam is a Data Insights Engineer at Flatiron Health, NYC, working on the integration and transformation of electronic medical record data from oncology clinics in the US, drawing from a large toolkit ranging from various SQL flavors and ETL tools to Python, Pandas, statistical methods and data visualization as well as clinical terminologies and standard software engineering tools to quickly iterate on end-to-end data solutions that provide value to researchers, providers and patients.
She completed a PhD at the School of Computer Science, The University of Manchester, UK. My thesis focused on exploring and exploiting the "justificatory structure" of OWL ontologies by using relationships between explanations in order to improve the ontology debugging process.
