Mathematical Biology and Healthcare
Mathematical Biology and Healthcare research in Birmingham is strongly integrated with experimental research, medicine and healthcare.
The main focus of mathematical biology research in Birmingham is multiscale modelling of a variety of biological and medical systems, areas of interest including, but not limited to:
• Mechanical effects in plant growth
• Fluid dynamics of sperm motility, and symmetry breaking in embryonic development
• Models of cancer and inflammation
• The role of mechanical anisotropy in tissue formation
• Bacterial gene regulation and its role in disease
• Antibiotic resistance and novel drug development
• Mathematical modelling in endocrinology and adrenal disease
• Industrial and biomedical applications of transversely isotropic fluids
