Hi, I'm Martha Correa-Delval

I am a Research Software Engineer at the Advanced Research Computing department at Durham University and the UK's National Centre of Particle Physics.
My work focuses on developing, optimising, and supporting research software — from simulation frameworks to performance-critical scientific applications.

I have an interdisciplinary background that combines Artificial Intelligence, simulation, and human-computer interaction.

  • Current work: Developing and optimising large-scale agent-based models that simulate the spread of diseases through digital twins of populations.
  • Previous research:
    • PhD: Artificial Intelligence for Smart Energy Systems, focusing on optimising energy consumption to reduce CO₂ emissions.
    • Postdoc: Human-Computer Interaction, exploring how older adults perceive and engage with new technologies through UI/UX design.
  • I collaborate closely with researchers and academics to produce reproducible, efficient, and well-documented research software.
  • My projects often combine solo development with interdisciplinary teamwork.
