    Biography

    • 2010- present Ice sheet modeller, British Antarctic Survey (first 2.5 years as part of EU ice2sea project).
    • 2005-09 PhD University of Glasgow, Department of Mathematics. Title: “Pattern formation and hydrogen production in suspensions of swimming green algae”. Date awarded: December, 2009.
    • BSc (First Class) in Mathematics, University College London, 2002-2005.

    Research interests

    I am currently working as an Ice Sheet Modeller on a NERC grant (P.I. Dr Robert Arthern) to investigate the propagation of ocean-driven ice-shelf thinning and consequences for the interior of Antarctica and global sea level. Previously at BAS I have worked as part of the EU funded ice2sea programme and the EU programme Past4Future.

    I am a mathematican by training and have previously worked on constructing, modifying and evaluating mathematical models of biological systems. Projects I have worked on include modelling the collective swimming behaviour of microorganisms and constructing a dynamical model of hydrogen production from green algae.
