New research from Science at Melbourne's Stuart Johnston shows that as noise from shipping and other human activities surges, whales will find it increasingly harder to migrate successfully.

Whales have to put up with the constant noise caused by human activity in the oceans. In this #podcast episode we talk to Stuart Johnston about using maths to understand how noise impacts whales, and how to lessen the disruption we cause. plus.maths.org/content/how-do… Isaac Newton Institute

Looking forward to this research!

Great to see this published in Royal Society Publishing Proceedings A! Read the final version (open access) here: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

A great piece of research by Tom Hodgson!

A wonderful article from Jennifer Flegg on International Women in Mathematics Day: pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/articles/heali…

New preprint!

We (myself + Mat Simpson) derive some exact solutions for PDE models of diffusive processes that occur on heterogeneously growing domains.

can anyone recommend a modern undergrad math biology text? I love the classics (Edelstein-Keshet, deVries, Murray) but I feel they're too focused on model analysis rather than the holistic process of model construction + data comparison that current math bio often entails

Great talk by Tom Hodgson at #ecmtb2022 #smb2022 on how whales can collectively navigate in complex flow environments

Great to have this preprint out, based on research Celia did with me during an undergraduate project.

We looked at how much heterogeneity in nanoparticle dosage is unavoidable - even if all cells are identical - with both simulation and analytic results.
