I am involved in
the creation of a multidisciplinary research and teaching
infrastructure at King's College London, to combine and exploit expertise at the
interfaces between biology, medicine, physics, computer science and
mathematics. See the websites of the
Institute for Mathematical and Molecular Biomedicine and the
Systems Biomedicine Graduate Programme for further details.
