Students

Lamya Kamal

School of Medicine

Going into first year Medicine.

Max Nicosia

School of Computer Science

Part of the modelling team. I enjoy making cynical remarks and using sarcasm, even at the cost of public disapproval ;). I am the wiki slave and my favourite saying is: "I'll be honest with you ... " - been told it tends to annoy people. Also if you have comments and suggestions for the wiki, please keep them to yourself! :)

Sam Lipworth

School of Medicine

World class lasher, a very proud Scottish gentleman (even though he sounds like a posh Englishman). Enjoys golf avidly and has a mature sense of humour with a touch of cynicism.

Ogaga Sim-Ifere

School of Medicine

2nd year medicine student.

Charlie Thompson

School of Biology
Keen biologist that enjoys spending long afternoons in the lab.

Christina Samson

School of Mathematics
Lovely girl that enjoys playing with numbers, working hard and going out for drinks with friends. (Runner up to world lasher ladette). Avid fb stalker and taking candid pictures of team members.

Supervisors

Dr. V Anne Smith

School of Biology

Anne's research is in the field of computational biology. She examines complex biological networks, developing and evaluating algorithms to infer functional interactions based upon observational data. She works many levels of biological organisation, concentrating on networks in molecular, neuronal, and ecological systems. Her current research concentrates on the use of Bayesian networks to infer interactions in these biological systems.

Dr. Chris Hooley

School of Physics & Astronomy

Dr. John Mitchell

School of Biomolecular Sciences

John is interested in anything computational and related to molecules. After a PhD in theoretical chemistry, his first postdoc was in Biochemistry at UCL. He has been a lecturer at Birkbeck and at Cambridge, before coming to St Andrews in 2009. Since then, he has done lots of chemoinformatics, quite a lot of bioinformatics and only a little real theoretical chemistry. His scientific interests include computing the binding affinities between proteins and ligands, side-effects and toxicities of pharmaceuticals, and how much of a compound will dissolve in water. His group have worked extensively on the prediction of molecular properties such as melting point and solubility from chemical structure. They also use computational methods to study enzyme reaction mechanisms. They continue to develop the MACiE database of enzyme reaction mechanisms in collaboration with Prof. Janet Thornton at the EMBL-EBI.
