interests
I am a post-doctoral researcher in the Computational Biology Group in the Computing Laboratory, and a member of the Oxford New Frontiers in the Mathematics of Solids (OXMOS) programme. My main research interests are the use of nonlinear elasticity theory and the finite element method to model soft tissue mechanics accurately and efficiently. The main application areas I am interested in are modelling the mechanical deformation of the heart and coupling this with models of cardiac electro-physiology, and cancer modelling, from both discrete and continuum standpoints. I am heavily involved with the Chaste (Cancer, Heart and Soft Tissue Environment) project, in which powerful, efficient, general and heavily-tested software for solving problems in computational biology have been developed.
