the area of my research is
mathematical modeling of the electrochemical processes that occur in of cells
when the transmit signals
i think the main aim is to gain a better understanding of how they transmit
signals
and trying to find out how changes in the nose
how that can affect the speed in the effectiveness of the signals that get transmitted
it would be most useful
people who are looking at
diseases like multiple sclerosis which attacked now of cells it's i theoretical background for them
to
so maybe staged experiments on so the techniques that i'm using or a combination of
analytical mathematical techniques and then
some computational work and i'm also hoping to be able to get into the labs
at some point
and do some experiments on
summary of experiments to find parameters for the working on doing and to check the
results i do have
i think that's quite an exciting way of tying
the abstract maths into the real system i'm actually something
so i find it really interesting hannele
you abstract
into the mathematical round a lot's but then
you still have something that's relevant to the biology at the end of the process
i was already a student in southampton so
it was an easier choice to come here than to look somewhere else but also
the institute of complex systems simulation which are part of
is quite unique thing they're only two or three of them
in the u k so
that was it is quite a good opportunity to be in on something new and
something quite exciting
