About

Welcome to my homepage! I am an Associate Professor in Applied Mathematics at University College London. I am also a member of the Institute for the Physics of Living Systems at UCL.

I use mathematical modelling, often in close collaboration with experimental biologists, to investigate how molecular and genetic processes determine emergent function in complex biological systems (e.g. in cells, cell populations and/or tissues).
