Iain Bertram

Senior Data Scientist

Before join­ing The CEIH Iain spent his time using machine learn­ing on extreme­ly big data sets to inves­ti­gate the fun­da­men­tal prop­er­ties of the Uni­verse, such as the struc­ture of the pro­ton, ​“Why is the uni­verse made of mat­ter instead of anti­mat­ter?”, and is there some­thing weird lurk­ing just beyond reach. Iain is now using this expe­ri­ence to use machine learn­ing to improve health out­comes in South Aus­tralia. Away from the office, Iain enjoys walk­ing in the Ade­laide Hills, los­ing him­self in a good book, and deli­cious food.

Tina leads high-per­form­ing teams to deliv­er prac­ti­cal, evi­dence-based improve­ments, bal­anc­ing inno­va­tion with the effec­tive use of data to dri­ve bet­ter deci­sions and patient out­comes. A col­lab­o­ra­tive and prag­mat­ic leader, she has led major data and inno­va­tion pro­grams and con­tributed to state and nation­al health ini­tia­tives. Her goal is to improve patient out­comes by advanc­ing per­son­alised care and pre­ci­sion med­i­cine through bet­ter use of data and build­ing a strong cul­ture of inno­va­tion. Out­side of work, she enjoys trav­el­ling, good food and great company.

Scott can often be found at the water cool­er talk­ing about the lat­est UX prin­ci­ples to any­one who’ll lis­ten. He brings 20 years of expe­ri­ence in IT, Com­mu­ni­ca­tions and Dig­i­tal roles in gov­ern­ment and has deliv­ered a range of suc­cess­ful cus­tomer-first dig­i­tal solu­tions. Whether it’s design­ing a dash­board, web appli­ca­tion, or giv­ing advice on the best tech­nique for bicep curls, Scot­t’s enthu­si­asm and ded­i­ca­tion guar­an­tees he’ll get the best out­comes for his cus­tomers. He puts the ​‘you’ in UX.
