Valerie Meausoone
Affiliate, Center for Population Health Sciences
BioValerie Meausoone is currently a Research Data Architect and Consultant at the Stanford Research Computing Center. Mrs. Meausoone has been one of the early users and testers of a computing environment for the distribution and use of high-risk and population-health related datasets at Stanford. She has also participated in efforts to expand the current Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) Common Data Model to administrative non-health related datasets, allowing researchers to share code on datasets. Mrs. Meausoone has recently completed various analyses aimed at leveraging existing data to better study the relationship between social constructs, such as gender norms and women's economic empowerment, and health.

David Medeiros
Geospatial Reference and Instruction Specialist, Geospatial Information Services
BioI am the Geospatial Reference and Instruction Specialist for the Stanford Geospatial Center, part of the Research Data Services group. I provide GIS consultation and reference support to Stanford students, faculty and staff. My primary role is supporting Stanford researchers in their use and understanding of geospatial tools, data, and methods.
Much of my time is spent conducting one-on-one consultations, training users on GIS software, finding spatial data, and helping design spatial analysis. In addition to one-on-one consultations I also coordinate and present our ongoing series of workshops in GIS (Introduction to GIS, Georeferencing, ArcGIS Online 101, GIS Cartography).
My educational background is in Geography and Geographic Information Science, but a significant part of my professional background is in digital cartography. I have a strong interest in the effective use of design in map making for GIS. I am available for faculty publication map support as well as novel geospatial design work with tools like Blender3d or 3d printing of spatial data.
