Stuart Lynn joins CartoDB as a Map Scientist, bringing his background in astrophysics to develop intuitive and powerful web interfaces for citizen science research. With experience in developing software for projects like Zooniverse, where he helped create web interfaces for large data volumes, Stuart is now channeling his inquisitiveness to enhance scientific museum and social good sectors through CartoDB's tools. He aims to understand how people derive understanding from playing with maps and develop tools that accelerate and ease that process. With a passion for exploring complex information through data visualization, particularly maps, Stuart hopes to make better choices by augmenting human intuition. His experience includes working on projects like OldWeather, PlanetHunters, and the Journal Of Brief Ideas platform.
