Director of the Oxford Centre for Collaborative Applied Mathematics (OCCAM)
Mathematical Institute
University of Oxford, UK

Research Interests:
• Methods of Applied Mathematics (differential equations, dynamical systems,...)
• Discrete and continuum mechanics, elasticity, plasticity.
• Application of mechanics and mathematics to biology.
• Mathematical modeling in physics and engineering.
• Interesting and otherwise unclassifiable mathematical problems.
