Interview with a Data Scientist - Blowing the Trumpet for Data Science

Welcome to the second installment of our “Interview with a Data Scientist” series, where we explore the careers and work of the talented members of the NHS England Data Science team. We aim to showcase the fantastic individuals who contribute to the NHS England Data Science Profession and provide valuable insights for those considering a career in Data Science within the healthcare sector.

This week, we have the pleasure of hearing from Sarah Culkin, the Deputy Director of the Data Science team. Leveraging her experience in both health and data, Sarah is leading the charge to support the digital transformation of the NHS and champion the growth of data science as a vital profession across the organisation.
