Mathematical models of biological and environmental processes both encapsulate and enhance our understanding of these systems. New modelling methodology is required to address the increasing complexity of models being considered, whilst new statistical methods are needed to fully integrate models and data in the face of a gathering pace of data acquisition.
In the menu on the right we present some highlights; more detailed overview of key themes and applications is given below.
See recent publication describing a novel method for fast inference in discrete state Markov processes
We have:
We have used models to increase understanding of a range of ecological issues including:
In addition, we have also used models to explore
See the recent publication on the ecology of wildlife disease surveillence
We have developed a range of models and approaches to describe the complex dynamics and behaviours of microbiomes. Applications include:
