About me

I am a PhD student in Applied Mathematics at the University of Leeds. I undertook my undergraduate studies at the University of Manchester in Theoretical Physics, which leaves me now feeling like a physicist disguised as a mathematician.

My research focuses on utilising techniques from non-equilibrium statistical physics to investigate problems concerning the evolutionary dynamics of biological systems. Check out my research page for more details.

Here you will find everything to do with my publications, talks, teaching, and anything else I think is worthwhile having on here.

If you would like to get in contact with me, please do so on my email: mmmwa@leeds.ac.uk.

You can find me on Twitter: @askermatthew

I maintain the website for the Eco-Evolutionary Dynamics of Fluctuating Populations research group that I am part of, which can be found here: eedfp.com.
