Miles Davenport
Professor Miles Davenport is Head of the Complex Systems in Biology group at UNSW. He completed a medical degree at the University of Sydney and a D.Phil in experimental immunology at the University of Oxford, before shifting his research to theoretical and mathematical biology. His research focus is on understanding and modeling host-pathogen interactions in chronic infections like HIV, CMV, and malaria. His team consists of bioinformaticians, mathematicians, physicists and computer scientists who apply mathematical and computational approaches to understand infection dynamics. He has over 30 experimental collaborations both within Australia and overseas which aim to combine theory and modeling to better understand experimental data. These projects range from bioinformatics approaches to understanding immune recognition and viral evolution, through to mathematical modeling of host-pathogen interactions in human and animal infection. He was President of the Australasian Society for Immunology in 2009-10, and is currently an NHMRC Senior Research Fellow
