Mathematical biology

We develop cutting-edge mathematical approaches to study challenging problems.

Our research interests and expertise cover:

  • biological fluid dynamics (biofilms; bioreactors; swimming sperm, bacteria and algae)
  • biomaterials (collagen self-assembly; biomineralization; dynamics of biological membranes)
  • mathematical ecology (fisheries and stochastic dynamics)
  • mathematical physiology (wound healing)
  • mathematical virology (virus assembly using symmetry)
  • systems biology (complexity and emergent phenomena).

We enjoy a vibrant research community and offer a range of PhD opportunities.
