I'm Josh, an evolutionary biologist 🧬 🐸, turned research software engineer 💻.

I'm currently working at the The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) on the Epiverse initiative, and finishing my PhD at the University of Groningen. My PhD is on the topic of developing novel phylogenetic models to understand macroevolutionary patterns on islands ⛰️.

• 🔭 I’m currently working on: Epiverse by day, macroevolution and island biogeography by night.
• 🌱 I’m currently learning: most things, but mainly epidemiology of infectious diseases.
• 👯 I’m looking to collaborate on: interesting research questions at the intersection of evolutionary biology and epidemiology.
• 🤔 I’m looking for help with: not sure ... but fun collaborators are always welcome 😃
• 💬 Ask me about: anything!
• 📫 How to reach me: [email protected]
• 😄 Pronouns: he/him
• ⚡ Fun fact: I'm a fan of all things Monocle
