ABOUT MEI'm originally from Britain, where I studied a degree in Natural Sciences and a PhD in biochemistry, specialising in directed evolution and evolvability. I now work in Australia as a post doctoral researcher in bioinformatics, convergent evolution and protein engineering and have additionally worked as a freelance scientific illustrator for a few popular science books. I've been active on Wikipedia since 2013[1] and now run workshops on Wikipedia editing for scientists.[2][3][4][5][6][7]

MY WORKI edit articles in biochemistry and evolutionary biology. In particular, I'm trying to add and improve images since diagrams are key to clear science articles, all of which are available for attributed re-use under a CC-BY license. I'm also able to generate interactive wikilinked diagrams and, where possible, I try to make sure that formatting I use is compatible with mobile devices. ARTICLES I'VE WORKED ON

TODO
Evolutionary landscape/fitness landscape - image
Evolvability - image?
Neutral mutation - causes and types
Experimental evolution
Bacteriophage experimental evolution - currently a crazy mess
Enzyme promiscuity
Mutations - expand 'beneficial mutations' and clean up 'DFE'
Defensin - add plant defensins
Cyclic peptide - expand and separate cyclic proteins section
Active site - new images
Binding site - new images
Oxyanion hole - image, chemistry, examples
Directional selection - improve image
Genome engineering - merge with genome editing?
Protein structure - evolution/conservation and images update!
Help:intro to pages - New welcome, MOS, navidation?
Protein stability - create or insert into existing article?
Hairpinin - create
