Samantha Gogol | Research + Data

Coding & Data Analysis Portfolio

I build reproducible pipelines that turn messy real-world data into analysis-ready outputs, validated results, and clear documentation. My portfolio includes small, self-contained examples (with demo data) that highlight QA/QC, feature engineering, dimensionality reduction, and statistical + machine learning workflows.

Tools: R, Python, SQL, Git/GitHub, tidy workflows, modeling + visualization

Dissertation repositories and reproducibility

Dissertation Repositories & Reproducibility

Dissertation-specific code, derived datasets, codebooks, and sharing notes live in my research repositories. Materials are organized for transparency and reproducibility; some components may be restricted or shared in derived form in accordance with museum and permitting agreements.

Includes: analysis code + versioning, derived data tables, documentation, access notes

3D Morphometrics & Imaging Data

I work across 3D acquisition, mesh preprocessing, landmark/semilandmark strategies, and surface variable extraction. My focus is building scalable workflows that remain robust across specimen variability and support downstream modeling.

Tools: Geomagic Design X, 3D Slicer, MeshLab/Blender, R/Python-based analysis

See 3D workflow projects

Grant Writing & Research Design

I translate complex research into fundable, measurable plans—linking methods to deliverables, risk mitigation, timelines, and broader impacts. I emphasize clear problem framing, testable objectives, and practical outputs.

Strengths: scope + milestones, methods justification, evaluation metrics, impact narratives

Project management, collaboration, and teaching

Project Management, Documentation & Teaching

I run multi-part projects with clear milestones, strong documentation, and reproducible outputs. I also train and mentor students and collaborators—turning complex workflows into usable SOPs, tutorials, and shared infrastructure.

Includes: version control, QA checklists, onboarding docs, stakeholder communication, teaching materials
