Derek

A PhD physicist at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. I'm working on my Python programming skills so I can get into some machine learning, for no reason other than it's cool.

Beyond the day job of science, I can generally be found walking the dog.. normally in the rain. I also enjoy working on my German language skills and have made a point of trying to learn some basic Persian this year too.
