I am a biophysicist interested in interactions between the Wikimedia and scholarly communities, as well as in integrating their respective workflows and infrastructure. Within this general framework, my focus for this Wikimania is on WikiCite (especially Scholia) and disaster prevention, both with special attention to Africa.
