Systems biology of plant-microbe interactions. The main research focus of my group is on the application of mathematical and computational models to help understand plant-microbe interactions. We are particularly interested in how biological entities process information and communicate through `noisy channels' to deliver biomechanical responses. The approaches range from standard numerical and theoretical physics techniques to methods of artificial intelligence, machine learning, computational geometry, computer vision, information theory, Bayesian inference, evolutionary programming and the development of new algorithms.
