Soooo I am excited to share some #JobNews . I will be officially joining the @psychopy team in September! What will I be doing I hear you say?... 1/6

#openscience #opensource #PsychoPy #Pavlovia #python

Supporting users, tracking down bugs, creating bespoke exps, running workshops and training events - does your research group/ department fancy a demo session – get in touch 2/6

Outreach and awareness. Hopefully encouraging earlier integration of #opensource tools in #education 3/6

All of Twitter knows about my #PsychoPy obsession...

Awesome scientists have developed it for FREE for years (over 100 contributors! github.com/psychopy/psych… ). @wellcometrust & @ChanZuckerberg funding enabled PsychoPy to go to online with #Pavlovia and now it’s taking off! 4/6

I AM STILL A SCIENTIST.
I am not “leaving” academia, I am delighted to continue collabs with some fantastic teams @MultisensoryC and @tilda_tcd, I will still attend conferences…. I’ll just probably also talk about @psychopy, which I did anyway 😅 5/6

As you can tell, I am excited to join the team. Just look at the Open Science Tools mission statement … you can tell why opensciencetools.org

Thank you so much to everyone I have had the opportunity to work with so far ❤️

Let’s see where this goes!

6/6
