I'm David, a queer Finnish physicist originally from Scotland. I write on here in a personal capacity.

I use big computers to simulate the very early universe.

I also want to become a better teacher. For example, I want to understand what leads people from minoritised groups to abandon studies in physics.

I help out with the local LGBTQ+ community, such as our LGBTQ+ STEM day events.

#introduction

I'm a #postdoc at #HelsinkiUni. I like thinking about #EvolutionaryGenomics and the #genotype-phenotype map of #AdaptiveTraits

My current work is mainly on #salmon and #lifehistories, for example, what is the molecular basis of variation in #puberty?

On my free time I'm an #adrenalinejunky

Big fan of #fishes
