Professor Christina Cobbold works in the field of mathematical biology, focusing on spatial evolutionary ecology. Her research involves interdisciplinary collaborations with biologists to develop, apply, and analyze mathematical models that help understand population processes. She is particularly interested in assessing the effects of habitat fragmentation on species survival and the effects of environmental variation on the evolution and adaptation of life-history traits and developmental timing. The mathematical approaches she employs include analytical methods, dynamical systems, perturbation theory, and computational methods. Recently, she has become increasingly interested in formulating and testing quantitative models of biological antigenic diversity.
