The role of mathematical models in designing mechanopharmacological therapies for asthma (2022)
Journal Article
Irons, L., & Brook, B. S. (2022). The role of mathematical models in designing mechanopharmacological therapies for asthma. Frontiers in Systems Biology, 2, Article 929426. https://doi.org/10.3389/fsysb.2022.929426

Healthy lung function depends on a complex system of interactions which regulate the mechanical and biochemical environment of individual cells to the whole organ. Perturbations from these regulated processes give rise to significant lung dysfunction... Read More about The role of mathematical models in designing mechanopharmacological therapies for asthma.

A Parameter Representing Missing Charge Should Be Considered when Calibrating Action Potential Models (2022)
Journal Article
Barral, Y. H. M., Shuttleworth, J., Clerx, M., Whittaker, D. G., Wang, K., Polonchuk, L., …Mirams, G. R. (2022). A Parameter Representing Missing Charge Should Be Considered when Calibrating Action Potential Models. Frontiers in Physiology, 13, Article 879035. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2022.879035

Computational models of the electrical potential across a cell membrane are longstanding and vital tools in electrophysiology research and applications. These models describe how ionic currents, internal fluxes, and buffering interact to determine me...

A Quantitative Systems Pharmacology Perspective on the Importance of Parameter Identifiability (2022)
Journal Article
Sher, A., Niederer, S. A., Mirams, G. R., Kirpichnikova, A., Allen, R., Pathmanathan, P., …Noble, D. (2022). A Quantitative Systems Pharmacology Perspective on the Importance of Parameter Identifiability. Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 84(3), Article 39. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11538-021-00982-5

There is an inherent tension in Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) between the need to incorporate mathematical descriptions of complex physiology and drug targets with the necessity of developing robust, predictive and well-constrained models....
