Dr. Nawal H. Siddig

Assistant Professor of Applied Mathematics and Biomathematics and a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA), UK. Her work joins mathematical modelling with the biological and medical sciences, published in international peer-reviewed journals, and she brings long experience in modern teaching methods, e-learning and curriculum design.

My mission

To advance applied mathematics and biomathematics education and research through innovative teaching, e-learning technologies and interdisciplinary collaboration; to build a learning environment that inspires critical thinking, creativity and scientific inquiry; and to contribute research that addresses real-world challenges in health, biology and society.

Research interests

What I work on

  • Modelling biological systems

    Equations that describe what happens inside the body, from blood flow in arteries to fluid waves in the cochlea.

  • Disease dynamics

    Compartmental models that forecast epidemics such as COVID-19 and leishmaniasis, and measure the effect of quarantine and control.

  • Mathematics in medicine

    Analysis and computer simulation that serve clinicians and health-science researchers.

  • Analysis and simulation

    Numerical, probabilistic and fractional methods to solve models and test how they behave.

  • Interdisciplinary applications

    Mathematics applied to biology and engineering, from nanofluids to robot arms.
