Dr. George Wadhams

George Wadhams’ research interest lie in understanding how bacteria sense and integrate environmental information. In particular, his group is trying to understand in a quantitative manner how multiple, homologous pathways operate in individual cells and how the components of these pathways can be used to create synthetic pathways to achieve engineering solutions.

Dr. Ciarán Kelly

Ciarán Kelly obtained a PhD for his work in Frank Sargant’s group, constructing and characterising synthetic biohydrogen production pathways in E. coli. He is interested in the construction, characterisation, and re-engineering synthetic enzymes and pathways for the production of high-value chemicals.

Advisors

Professor Judy Armitage

Judy Armitage is interested in the dynamics of bacterial sensory transduction and the control of bacterial motility. In particular, her research group focuses on the communication between the sensory and adaption mechanisms of the two pathways as a model for sensory network integration in general..

Professor Anthony Watts

Anthony Watts’ group is devising solid state NMR methods for determining high-resolution details of information-rich sites within membrane receptors. Recent focus has been on the neurotensin receptor (NTS1), which is now available highly purified and monodispersed in detergent as well as in a ligand-binding form.

Professor Antonis Papachristodolou

Antonis Papachristodoulou’s research interests include systems and synthetic biology, network systems, aerospace systems and flow control, and convex optimisation. Furthermore, he works on modern control theory, robust stability analysis and design, as well as nonlinear dynamical systems and Lyapunov stability.

-In 2000 I obtained an MA/MEng degree in Electrical and Information Sciences from the University of Cambridge, U.K., as a member of Robinson College. In 2005 I completed a PhD in Control and Dynamical Systems at the California Institute of Technology, with a PhD Minor in Aeronautics. My thesis was on "Scalable Analysis of Nonlinear Systems Using Convex Optimization". After a short David Crighton Fellowship at the University of Cambridge and a postdoctoral fellowship at the California Institute of Technology, I joined the Department of Engineering Science at the University of Oxford in January 2006, where I am now an Associate Professor in Engineering Science (Control Engineering) and a Tutorial Fellow at Worcester College, Oxford. I serve regularly on Technical Programme Committees for conferences, and I am associate editor for Automatica and IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control.</div>
