Journal Article
Seymour, R. G., Kypraios, T., O’Neill, P. D., & Hagenaars, T. J. (2021). A Bayesian nonparametric analysis of the 2003 outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza in the Netherlands. Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C, 70(5), 1323-1343. https://doi.org/10.1111/rssc.12515

Infectious diseases on farms pose both public and animal health risks, so understanding how they spread between farms is crucial for developing disease control strategies to prevent future outbreaks. We develop novel Bayesian nonparametric methodolog... Read More about A Bayesian nonparametric analysis of the 2003 outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza in the Netherlands.

Extended Larché–Cahn framework for reactive Cahn–Hilliard multicomponent systems (2021)
Journal Article
Clavijo, S. P., Espath, L., & Calo, V. M. (2021). Extended Larché–Cahn framework for reactive Cahn–Hilliard multicomponent systems. Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics, 33(6), 2391-2410. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00161-021-01045-9

At high temperature and pressure, solid diffusion and chemical reactions between rock minerals lead to phase transformations. Chemical transport during uphill diffusion causes phase separation, that is, spinodal decomposition. Thus, to describe the c...

Neural Network Differential Equations For Ion Channel Modelling (2021)
Journal Article
Lei, C. L., & Mirams, G. R. (2021). Neural Network Differential Equations For Ion Channel Modelling. Frontiers in Physiology, 12, Article 708944. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2021.708944

Mathematical models of cardiac ion channels have been widely used to study and predict the behaviour of ion currents. Typically models are built using biophysically-based mechanistic principles such as Hodgkin-Huxley or Markov state transitions. Thes...

Black hole scalarization with Gauss-Bonnet and Ricci scalar couplings (2021)
Journal Article
Antoniou, G., Lehébel, A., Ventagli, G., & Sotiriou, T. P. (2021). Black hole scalarization with Gauss-Bonnet and Ricci scalar couplings. Physical Review D, 104(4), Article 044002. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.104.044002

Spontaneous scalarization is a gravitational phenomenon in which deviations from general relativity arise once a certain threshold in curvature is exceeded, while being entirely absent below that threshold. For black holes, scalarization is known to... Read More about Black hole scalarization with Gauss-Bonnet and Ricci scalar couplings.

Single quantum emitter Dicke enhancement (2021)
Journal Article

Coupling N identical emitters to the same field mode is well-established method to enhance light matter interaction. However, the resulting √ N-boost of the coupling strength comes at the cost of a "linearized" (effectively semi-classical) dynamics.... Read More about Single quantum emitter Dicke enhancement.

The risk for a new COVID-19 wave and how it depends on R 0, the current immunity level and current restrictions (2021)
