Dr. Carl McBride Ellis

      I work as a data scientist (independent contractor) based in Madrid (Spain).
      My focus is on the predictive modeling of tabular data using the techniques
      of applied computational statistics or "machine learning".

      I also maintain the website SklogWiki, an open-edit encyclopedia dedicated to thermodynamics and
      statistical mechanics, especially that of simple liquids, complex fluids, and soft condensed matter.
      SklogWiki is particularly oriented towards theoretical studies and computer simulations.
