Brady Johnston

  • Currently writing PhD thesis (almost there…) in Structural Biology and Biophysics

  • Part-time data scientist with the Minderoo Foundation

  • Very interested in all things data-viz

  • Passionate proponent of teaching anyone who will listen about R & the benefits of coding

I’m a self-taught coder, first learning R to do data analysis for my PhD and now regularly write Python & Julia code for various projects, and I get paid to write R code for the Minderoo foundation.

I’ve written multiple R packages, and am currently developing a suite of tools for protein visualisation inside of the 3D animation package Blender. You can see more about my different software projects on my github and I post about my different data vis experiments on my twitter.
