I am a biomedical engineer with research interests in the applications of experimental recording techniques, signal processing, and mathematical modelling in the field of gastrointestinal electrophysiology and motility.

My principal research methodology is to use biophysically-based mathematical models to simulate the physiological processes that contribute to the gastrointestinal bioelectrical activity, and to validate the models using experimental recordings. I hope to apply the models in clinical settings and to answer questions regarding the mechanisms of the pathological factors involved in a number of gastrointestinal diseases.
