Biography

I obtained a BSc in Mathematics & Physics from the University of Strathclyde, before completing a PhD in Applied Mathematics.  Following some short postdoctoral positions, I moved into the industry, working in the Renewable Energy Sector, where my role involved forecasting the energy output of wind farms at the pre-construction stage. After two enjoyable years in industry, I returned to academia as Research Associate in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics at the University of Strathclyde. Following this, I became Knowledge Exchange Associate in the Department, with the remit of helping Mathematics & Statistics colleagues to better engage with industry and other stakeholders.

I was appointed Lecturer at University of Glasgow in 2015, within the Division of Biomedical Engineering, where my mathematical modelling research is being applied to problems in biology and health. During this time, I became a Fellow of The Institute of Mathematics & its Applications (FIMA designation) and a Chartered Mathematician (CMath designation).

Since 2016, I have been the Director of CMALS (Centre for Mathematics applied to the Life Sciences), a Scottish centre whose mission is to promote interdisciplinary research and scholarship in Mathematical Biology.

In 2020 I was promoted to Senior Lecturer and subsequently promoted to Reader the following year in 2021.

From 2019-2021, I served on the EPSRC Mathematical Sciences Strategic Advisory Team (SAT) and I have taken part in several EPSRC Mathematical Sciences Funding Prioritisation Panels. Further afield, I play a role in the strategic development of a number of other organisations related to Mathematical Sciences,  including the European Consortium for Mathematics in Industry (ECMI), where I lead a special interest group.

Since 2022, I have been the School lead for Impact Culture and in 2023, I became Senior Senate Assessor for Student Conduct

Research interests

 

Mathematical modelling applied to health and biology 

I lead a group focussed on developing mathematical and computational tools to help understand biological processes, disease and treatment, in collaboration with experimental groups. I have expertise in mathematical modelling of biological systems broadly within the application areas of drug discovery and drug delivery. My work is multi-disciplinary and involves collaborating with mathematicians, life scientists, engineers, clinicians and industry.

I am perhaps best known for my mathematical modelling of cardiovascular interventions, particularly drug eluting-stents and drug-coated balloons.  Highlights include the first predictive model of in vivo drug-eluting stent performance, as well as the first continuum computational model of restenosis subject to drug delivery from stents. My group's models have culminated in the development of a novel drug-eluting stent in collaboration with industry and the NHS.

Some other interests include mathematical modelling of sonoporation using liquid-crystalline shelled microbubbles and theoretical modelling of phase separation in amorphous solid dispersions, using principles from thermodynamics and multi-component diffusion.  I have expertise in modelling flow and mass transport in a number of biological applications, including cardiovascular medical implant design and optimization, and in the areas of drug delivery and drug discovery, physiological flows and bioreactor cell culture systems. 

As well as the development of appropriate numerical methods, an important feature of my work is the use of analytical techniques (e.g. non-dimensionalisation, asymptotics and sensitivity analysis) to provide added value and to simplify the models whilst still capturing the important features.

Recent Research Highlights

Professional activities

I am a former member of both the EPSRC Mathematical Sciences Strategic Advisory team (SAT) and the EPSRC Mathematical Sciences Early Career Forum, and a fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (FIMA designation).  I also hold the CMath designation and am a member of the European Society of Biomechanics.

Since 2016, I have been the Director of CMALS (Centre for Mathematics applied to the Life Sciences), a Scottish centre whose mission is to promote interdisciplinary research and scholarship in Mathematical Biology.

I am the director of the European Special Interest Group entitled "Implantable Devices and Drug Delivery Systems," which is supported by the European Consortium for Mathematics in Industry (ECMI).  Additionally, I recently acted as Guest Editor on the Feb 2016 Annals of Biomedical Engineering Special Issue "Medical Stents: State of the Art and Future Directions".

I am on the Editorial Boards of the Journal of Pharmacy & Pharmacology, Mathematical Biosciences & Engineering  and Frontiers in Medical Technology.

Research Impact, Knowledge Exchange and Public Engagement

I have a track record of collaborating with companies and clinicians to ensure that my work remains relevant and is driven by need.  In addition, I engage with the general public to inspire the next generation of scientists and to showcase the value of my work.

 

PhD Opportunities

I am very keen to hear from excellent students who wish to study for a PhD with me.  Enquiries are warmly welcomed, although prospective students should investigate potential funding and/or scholarships (if required) before getting in touch.
