We develop and apply mathematical and computational models to study cell and developmental biology at the cell and tissue levels. Combined with experiments, they provide insights into the mechanisms of embryo development.
Molecular Immunology Group
T cells initiate immune responses to clear infections and cancers. They integrate signals from various surface receptors using intracellular signalling molecules. We use quantitative methods to understand this process and enhance human health.
Steel Group
Creating biotechnologies at the interface of control engineering, synthetic biology and robotics.
Sweetlove lab
We investigate the behaviour of the metabolic systems of plants in order to devise metabolic engineering strategies that will improve the productivity and quality of crop plants. We use both computational and experimental approaches to achieve this.
