A busy year with a growing research group! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Research team:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Welcome to new team members Patrick, Axa and Kaitlyn who have joined our Mathematics of Life and Environmental Sciences (MoLES) research group as PhD students this semester!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Patrick Parkinson (supervised by myself and Prof Anvar Shukurov) is working to develop diagnostic image analysis tools to assess corneal health and mathematical models of corneal wound healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Axa L\u00e4\u00e4peri joins the ecological modelling team (supervised by myself, Dr Andrew Baggaley, and Prof Nick Parker) through the ONE Planet Doctoral Training Partnership<\/a>, and is working to develop mathematical models for wildfire spread within the UK. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Kaitlyn Ries, supported by the Geospatial Systems Centre for Doctoral Training<\/a>, also joins the ecological modelling team (supervised by myself, Dr Andrew Baggaley, and Prof Nick Parker) and will work to explore statistical models for invasive pest spread in the UK, beginning with a MRes project before starting her PhD in September 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n New Publications:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n L E Wadkin, A Golightly, J\u00a0Branson, A\u00a0Hoppit, N G\u00a0Parker and A\u00a0W Baggaley.\u00a0Quantifying Invasive Pest Dynamics through Inference of a Two-Node Epidemic Network Model.<\/a>\u00a0Diversity<\/em>, 15(4), 496, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Golightly, L E Wadkin, S A Whitaker, A W Baggaley, N G Parker and T Kypraios.
