Research
I am particularly interested in Scientific Computing in the intersection with Data-driven research and Data Science. I have extensive experiences in many aspects of Scientific Computing in general, in Numerical Modeling and -Analys in particular, as well as to some extent in High-Performance Computing. My main focus of applications are in the Biosciences at broad, but I’ve also taken an interest in traditional computational Engineering applications.
Current active research projects include Bayesian approaches for compute intensive data-driven models in epidemics, including in particular prediction, and multiscale modeling and parameterization of living cells, where spatial stochasticity is an important aspect of the modeling.
In case you are interested in doing a project work or a MSc-thesis, please feel invited to contact me for further discussions
Open project proposals:
Computational Epidemics driven by Data
In this line of research we are interested in the trade-offs between data and detailed so-called mechanistic models. The application focus is in epidemics and concerns modeling under uncertainties and supporting risk-based decisions. Part of the work will be done in URDME.
More details can be found here.
Computational cell population models: multiscale and multiphysics modeling
There are three suggested openings for projects within the software framework URDME. Suggestions include advanced new modeling, improving simulation efficiency and flexibility, as well as mathematical analysis.
More details can be found here.
