I spent four years in
Bayreuth,
Germany
where I was awarded a
Dr rer nat
doctoral degree
from the
University of Bayreuth
(2004) for
my work on
dynamo theory of planetary magnetism. My mathematical genealogy
may be traced

From July 2004 to September 2006, I worked in
Liverpool,
UK
as a Senior Research Fellow in the
Department of Mathematical Sciences
of the
University of Liverpool

propagation of
waves in cardiac tissue.
In 2006 I joined the School of Mathematics and Statistics of
the University of Glasgow where
I am now a Professor of Applied Mathematics.
In 2012-13 I spent 11 months at
Stanford University
and
UCLA
as a Visiting Research Scholar in
Solar Physics collaborating with the
HMS group.
In 2017 I was elected a Fellow of
