I am a Lecturer in the Department of Optometry and Visual Sciences at City St George’s, University of London, where I lead the Mathematical & Computational Ophthalmology (MaCO) group.
As a mathematical biologist, I use mathematical models to explain and predict the behaviour of biological and physiological systems, with a particular emphasis on modelling the healthy and diseased eye and retina. My work is conducted in close collaboration with experimental biologists, biomedical scientists and clinicians.
