Abstract

I have worked on the circadian clock in Arabidopsis for 13 years and only in the past year have I brought in mathematics, through collaboration, in response to our results. Theoretical work can address many questions in clocks, particularly if it is combined with a simple experimental model. I will therefore: 1) Acquire mathematical education in dynamics and training in associated software; 2) Model the plant circadian circuit and its interaction with the light input pathway; 3) Establish an entrainable, synthetic clock in a microbial model.
