Flavie Bidel

About

Trained as a biologist with a PhD in ecotoxicology and postdoctoral research in neuroscience, I have since transitioned out of academia to become a Data Analyst at the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR). In this role, I focus on data curation, cleaning, and harmonization, and develop impactful visualizations using Python and Power BI to support evidence-based decision-making.
I also coordinate projects within our Science of Science (SoS) research initiatives, which allows me to stay connected to research and contribute to publications in this growing interdisciplinary field—where my background in life sciences and data analysis offers a unique perspective.
