Summary

As Deputy Director of the Health Sciences Library, I am responsible for strategic directions of the Faculty Bibliography and bibliometric analyses and reporting. I develop tools and workflows to capture and report on performance metrics for the library. I also analyze this data to inform the strategic directions of the library.  

I am the Director of the National Center for Data Services (NCDS) of the Network of the National Library of Medicine, funded by a grant from the National Library of Medicine (NLM). The NCDS develops and provides training and resources to build the capacity to support data science and data management in the health sciences information professional community, in line with the NIH priorities and the NLM Strategic plan. 

I serve as the Data Science Core Director for an NIH BRAIN Initiative collaborative grant studying oxytocin modulation of behavior and brain circuit function, through which I collaborate on the development of BrainSTEM, a tool for collection of structured, standardized experimental neuroscience metadata that facilitates FAIR data sharing.
