Researcher/Developer
Caroline trained as a GP, and now works as an epidemiologist and software developer at the Bennett Institute. She has an interest in applying computational methods to epidemiological problems and developing ways for research to be more open. Before coming to Oxford, she worked at Imperial College London teaching medical students how to program to solve problems in the NHS and in research.
