Name:Michael Dales

Bio:

I’m a technologist and maker that’s interested in building things that help make the world a better place for people.

I work as a Planetary Computing Fellow at the University of Cambridge, part of the Cambridge Conservation Initiative, where I work closely with plant scientists and zoologists, both from the University and conservation NGOs, building pipelines and tooling to enable us to better understand and find solutions for the climate crisis. You can see an example of that work, looking a biodiversity impacts, here. My focus is not just building faster pipelines through the application of computer systems knowledge, but also make the pipelines easier to share, reproduce, and scrutinise.
