Research interests

My thesis is concerned with the Mathematics of Sensing. I am interested in understanding how organisms sense and perceive the world, as this will play a critical role in the way they interact with it. As part of my work, I have looked into the dynamics of human balance, electroreception and smell in insects. 

I am also collaborating with the Oxford Botanical Garden to analyse volatile emission and pollinator attraction in the world's largest flower genus, Rafflesia. 

Main interests: Fluid Dynamics and Mathematical Biology.
