I was an editor for the British Journal of Pharmacology (term 2018-2022). It is the leading pharmacology research journal and the official basic science journal of the British Pharmacological Society.
-
I was Guest Editor together with Steve Niederer and Richard Clayton for an issue of Royal Society Philosophical Transactions A on Uncertainty quantification in cardiac and cardiovascular modelling and simulation.
