Summary

 

Overview

We are mathematician-physicists with interests in the Natural world. Our work abuts topics in engineering, statistics and computer science.

We study topics in mitochondrial genetics and ageing. We also study aspects of public health and partially observed networks.

Our work thus requires tools from Bayesian inference, stochastic processes, signal processing, network analysis, algorithmics and informatics.

We have studied comparative, feature-based, approaches to signal processing with applications in Ecology and Neuroscience. Interactive website, Code, Manual

Tax payers support almost all our research and can learn about it here in our group blog.

Advanced Hackspace

show research

In 2012 I had the idea that Imperial could have a kind of Advanced Hackspace. I wrote a letter outlining my ideas. Following positive responses, and with the encouragement of Peter Childs, I wrote a grant for our Advanced Hackspace in 2013. Since 2014 this Advanced Hackspace is now active under the name ICAH and members of the Imperial community can join. Explore it here. This is a network of spaces, supported by skilled staff, where members of the college can make their ideas happen. In 2017 Imperial opened a dedicated Advanced Hackspace facility at its White City Campus. I'm now on the academic management team of the space.

Precision Healthcare

show research

I co-founded, with Caroline Colijn and Mauricio Barahona, the EPSRC Centre for the Mathematics of Precision Healthcare

It has a linked Mathematics in Medicine grouping.

Data Use

show research

We also analyse healthcare records provided to us by NHS digital to better understand the relationship between hospitalisations and signals from wastewater-based monitoring of SARS-CoV-2. You can find out more in our privacy notice: nhs digital privacy notice

AI in Science and I-X

show research

I'm the lead on a new centre devoted to AI in Science

and I'm a co-director of I-X Imperial's new flagship for interdisciplinary AI.
