Research title: A mathematical model for nanokicking

Research Summary

Generally I am interested in applying mathematical modelling to biologically motivated problems. My current research focuses on cell adhesion to substrate and how the concentration of proteins involved in this process couple to a mechanical description of the cell and underlying matrix. 

Additionally I have a keen interest in fluid mechanics, particularly in studying fluid-structure interaction and self-excited oscillations.
