About Us
We study microbial population dynamics and evolution, using mathematical modelling and experiments.
We are based in the Institute of Evolutionary Biology, and are also affiliated with the Centre for Synthetic & Systems Biology.
Our research is funded by the Royal Society, the University of Edinburgh, and individual PhD scholarships.
