Du samedi 5 octobre au lundi 7 octobre, le campus du centre-ville et le campus Macdonald ne seront accessibles qu’aux étudiants et aux membres du personnel de l’Université McGill, ainsi qu’aux visiteurs essentiels. De nombreux cours auront lieu en ligne. Le personnel devra travailler à distance, si possible. Voir le site Web de la Direction de la protection et de la prévention pour plus de détails.

Research Area:  Dynamics of Physiological Control

Research Description:

The focus is on the mathematical modeling of physiological processes at the molecular, cellular and tissue level.  Recent work has emphasized:

1. Gene regulation in simple organisms; and

2. Periodic hematological diseases (such as cyclical neutropenia, cyclical thrombocytopenia, and periodic leukemia). 

My emphasis is always on biologically realistic mathematical models, careful consideration of laboratory and/or clinical data, and achieving a reasonable concordance between the data and the modelling.

I no longer take trainees (UG research students, graduate students or post-doctoral fellows).

Education:  Ph.D. Physiology & Biophysics, University of Washington
