Research information:
I study how nonlinear systems can generate unpredictable behaviour including chaos. I also study how this behaviour is influenced by various sources of noise such as environmental fluctuations. This research is applied to the neurosciences, where I seek to understand how our senses code information about the outside physical world, and to unravel the secrets of the codes used by the brain. It is also applied to physiological variability such as that of heart rate and breathing rate in health and disease, using also nonlinear time series methods. My mathematical models make predictions about experimental outcomes in my colleagues' neurobiological and clinical laboratories. I am interested finally in plasticity and memory formation, neurotransmitter balance in mental health, the role of feedback between brain areas, and the behaviours of neurons under trauma.

Research information:
I develop mathematical models of infectious diseases, including HIV/AIDS, human papilloma virus, malaria and a variety of neglected tropical diseases. These models are in the areas of population epidemiology and within-host immunology. I look at intervention methods such as antiretroviral drugs, vaccines, quarantine and microbicides. I also study R0, the basic reproductive ratio for diseases. (I am also an expert in zombies and have the newspaper, radio and TV experience to prove it...)
