Chris McCaig is a Lecturer in Data Science at the University of Glasgow, where he is also a member of the Information Data & Analysis (IDA) Centre and the Computing Science Education (CCSE) sections. He completed his PhD at the University of Stirling, under the supervision of Carron Shankland and Rachel Norman. His early postdoctoral research at Stirling focused on developing rigorous methods for moving individual population descriptions in biological systems. McCaig also worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Strathclyde, where he contributed to various marine science projects. Following this, he spent time in the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, also at Strathclyde, applying data science techniques to industry-facing innovation projects. Over the course of his postdoctoral research, he developed a strong interest in teaching, which has shaped his current role that balances Learning, Teaching, and Scholarship at the University of Glasgow.
