We’re really excited to be starting work tomorrow on our EPSRC funded project!! We will be building on the previous within-host SARS-CoV-2 modelling work that Chris has been doing. We hope to share some new publications on this research soon. Check out the preprint that explains the modelling framework we intend to build on: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.05.06.490883v1

Code for this model can be found on our GitHub page:

We also plan to share a more abstract version of this code that will be easily adapted to different pathogens (with SARS-CoV-2 and TB as case studies) – coming soon!!

A big welcome to Chris Rowlatt who joined the team on 1st June as a Research Fellow. Chris will be working on the CSO project to develop a COVID-19 model.

Very excited to have received funding from Chief Scientific Office (CSO) to develop a within-host mathematical model for COVID-19. See https://www.cso.scot.nhs.uk/rapid-research-in-covid-19-programme/sancovid/ for details!

Great work that I hope we can build on!

Welcome to Anas Lasri Doukkali who joins us as part of the Infection group and the Mathematical Biology group to complete his PhD. Anas will be developing mathematical models to explore carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) in urinary tract infections. Welcome to St Andrews, Anas!
