| RESEARCH INTERESTS | Development and practical application of mathematical models in several diverse areas in the biomedical sciences. Recent and current topics of research, all of which involve the modelling, analysis, and biological interpretation of mathematical models, are: wound healing, with a view to understanding and preventing severe scarring; fingerprint formation; complex skin pattern formation, such as on snakes and animals; tooth formation; territory formation in wolf-deer interacting populations; analysing the risk of spread of genetically engineered organisms; modelling alcohol metabolism and breathalyser predictability; brain tumour growth; sex determination and evolutionary survival in alligators; modelling of psychological processes, such as marriage breakdown; and colonization aspects of competing populations. |
