#introduction

I am Alex Newton, a researcher and team lead at the Office for National Statistics, UK.

My work mostly focused on how to improve the computational reproducibility of official statistics, economic research, machine learning models, social studies, surveys, and analysis of all kinds that the UK government produces.

I'm currently taking a year out to do an MSc in Econ at LSE. My goal is to learn about and contribute to the micro theory literature on how science works.
