Brief Bio

Chris Leonard, Ph.D.

I'm currently Director of Translational Research and Technology at a small pharmaceutical research and development firm working on disorders of the central nervous system, which is a roundabout way of saying I run an IT shop with some interesting scientific computing requirements and do other things [1][2] that need to get done (e.g. design and run clinical trials, etc.)[3].

I've got a strong background in clinical microbiology, formerly a licensed clinical microbiology lab tech and 5 years of teaching the same to medical students at Cornell Med during my Ph.D. program. My research interests have included the molecular biology of viral DNA replication (Ph.D.)[4][5], molecular oncology (post-doc at Johns Hopkins)[6][7] and bioinformatics studies of the evolution of cell-cycle control mechanisms (GenBank Fellow, NCBI/NLM/NIH)[8]. Of particular relevance in this context, I'm an expert hunter-gatherer and synthesizer of biomedical information and interested in contributing to the Health project.

A passing interest in the topology of networks (including social networks) has led me to the discovery that I have an Erdős numberof 3.

Keyboards

Cjl: Thanks for noticing my mistakes. I have no stake in how the keyboards are actually laid out; I just needed the English keyboard to be available on a page all by itself. Since you seem to know more about this area, would you mind merging OLPC English Keyboard and OLPC US International Keyboard however seems best to you? (I'm working on a totally different project; namely, trying to learn whether and how the Semantic Mediawiki stuff can be applied to the task of test case management. I wound up modifying the US keyboard pages only because I wanted to explore how SMW could be used to build an i18n & l10n test matrix...) --18.85.47.114 00:52, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
