Regular biography
Dr Michael Watson is a Lecturer in Applied Mathematics in the School of Mathematics and Statistics at The University of New South Wales. His research focuses on mathematical and computational modelling of biological and physical systems, including the development and analysis of models to explain complex phenomena in biology and porous media. His work applies to areas such as wound healing, retinal vasculature development, and atherosclerosis. He also investigates pore-scale fluid flow in porous media, with applications to enhanced oil recovery. Dr Watson's research includes partial differential equation models, individual-based models, and pore network models.
Scholar-generated biography
Dr. Michael G Watson is a researcher at the University of New South Wales specializing in Mathematical Biology, with a focus on Angiogenesis, Atherosclerosis, and Porous Media. His work integrates mathematical modeling with biological processes to understand complex systems such as wound healing, retinal development, and atherosclerotic plaque formation. He has developed hybrid models to predict vascular patterns and explored the role of growth factors and lipid dynamics in disease progression. His research also extends to porous media, examining low-salinity water injection and its impact on fluid flow. Watson's interdisciplinary approach bridges computational and experimental methods to advance biomedical understanding.
