Forcing someone into marriage against their will is a violation of their human rights. In 2021, the county of Nottinghamshire, UK, launched a strategy to tackle forced marriage and violence against women and girls. We set out to map the risk of force...

Mathematical models are increasingly being relied upon to provide quantitatively accurate predictions of cardiac electrophysiology. Many such models concern the behaviour of particular subcellular components (namely, ion channels) which, together, al...

Philosophical Transactions A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 383(2292), https://doi.org/10.1098/rsta.2024.0227

The rapid delayed rectifier current carried by the human Ether-à-go-go-Related Gene (hERG) channel is susceptible to drug-induced reduction, which can lead to an increased risk of cardiac arrhythmia. Establishing the mechanism by which a specific dru... Read More about Optimizing experimental designs for model selection of ion channel drug-binding mechanisms.

Parameter inference for stochastic reaction models of ion channel gating from whole-cell voltage-clamp data (2025)
Journal Article
Del Core, L., & Mirams, G. R. (2025). Parameter inference for stochastic reaction models of ion channel gating from whole-cell voltage-clamp data. Philosophical Transactions A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 383(2292), https://doi.org/10.1098/rsta.2024.0224

Mathematical models of ion channel gating describe the changes in ion channel configurations due to the electrical activity of the cell membrane. Experimental findings suggest that ion channels behave randomly, and therefore stochastic models of ion...

Real-time inference for binary neutron star mergers using machine learning (2025)
Journal Article

Comparison of in silico predictions of action potential duration in response to inhibition of IKrand ICaLwith new human ex vivo recordings (2025)
Preprint / Working Paper
Barral, Y.-S. H., Polonchuk, L., Clerx, M., Gavaghan, D. J., Mirams, G. R., & Wang, K. Comparison of in silico predictions of action potential duration in response to inhibition of IKrand ICaLwith new human ex vivo recordings

During drug development, candidate compounds are extensively tested for proar-rhythmic risk and in particular risk of Torsade de Pointes (TdP), as indicated by prolongation of the QT interval. Drugs that inhibit the rapid delayed rectifier K+ current...

Quantifying arm swing in Parkinson’s disease: a method accounting for arm activities during free-living gait (2025)
Journal Article
Post, E., Van Laarhoven, T., Raykov, Y. P., Little, M. A., Nonnekes, J., Heskes, T. M., Bloem, B. R., & Evers, L. J. W. (2025). Quantifying arm swing in Parkinson’s disease: a method accounting for arm activities during free-living gait. Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 22(1), Article 37. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12984-025-01578-z

Background
Accurately measuring hypokinetic arm swing during free-living gait in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is challenging due to other concurrent arm activities. We developed a method to isolate gait segments without these arm activities.
