Research areas

I joined the School of Medicine in January 2025 as a Lecturer in Medical Statistics. Previously, I have held a Rankin-Sneddon fellow in Mathematical Biology at the University of Glasgow and before that an EPSRC Post-doctoral research position at the University of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø in the School of Mathematics and Statistics. My interests are in modelling cancer with a specfic interest in agent-based modelling of the tumour microenvironment. I lead a research iniative developing PhysiMeSS as an add-on to PhysiCell allowing fine grained modelling of the extracellular matrix to determine its affect on cancer development and progression.Ìý
