Overview
I am a Research fellow at the EPSRC Centre for Predictive Modeling in Heathcare.
My research interestes lie in the areas of compuational biology, biological physics, and statistical systems biology. I am particularly interested in how living systems at different scales of organisation (from biomolecules to cells to tissues and organs) process information: sensing and responding to external cues. I pursue these questions in the fields of cell biology, endocrinology and neuroendocrinology.
