We aim to decipher how the adaptive immune system goes wrong in disease, and how this can be used in diagnostics and therapeutics using cutting-edge experimental and computational approaches.
Goriely Group
We use mathematical modelling and mechanics to explore morphogenesis, growth, diseases with a special emphasis on plants and the brain.
Louis Group
We apply theoretical and computational tools from statistical mechanics to study how complex behaviour emerges from the interaction of many individual objects. We are particularly interested in biological physics and the dynamics of soft-matter.
Poole Lab
We study the development of plant roots and their relationships with microbes. Our aim is to engineer transkingdom signalling between plants and bacteria to enhance plant growth.
