I am a mathematical biologist from the University of Bristol, UK. I have previously worked on efficient parameterisation of cardiac ion channel models, uncertainty quantification and models of blood coagulation. I currently work as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Computation Biology within a synthetic biology group.

Hybrid and multiscale modeling gives rise to complex systems that are often difficult to simulate. Such models are integral to many areas of biology, where simple mechanisms can induce complex emergent phenomena across scales. We have developed Mermaid.jl, in which complex systems can be treated as components (models) and connections between them. We demonstrate the power of this approach through a range of examples, from the scale of single proteins to entire populations.
