The developer

Pablo Bernabeu is a researcher in the Department of Education at the University of Oxford, with hands-on experience of behavioural experiments, EEG, corpus analysis, computational modelling and statistics. He develops open, reproducible research software in R and Python, and is a Fellow of the Software Sustainability Institute. scopusflow and its Python twin are part of that work, keeping a search reproducible and its results legible across both languages.
