Summary
I am a research associate in the Mark Isalan group.
I am interested in the quantitative study of biological systems through the use of mathematical models. Currently, I am working on projects in stochastic gene expression and synthetic Turing pattern formation.
My PhD was undertaken at the University of Dundee and titled: ‘Spatio-temporal modelling of gene regulatory network containing negative feedback loops’. I completed this under the supervision of Professor Mark Chaplain.
Below is a word cloud of some of the most frequently found words in my publications.
