Adrián González-Casanova
I'm interested in Probability Theory and its applications in Theoretical Biology, including modelling, simulation and data-driven approaches.
My research primarily focuses on studying Interacting Particle Systems, Stochastic Duality, Coalescent Processes, Seed-Bank Models (Stochastic Delay Differential Equations), and the modeling of Experimental Evolution.
Currently, I'm exploring various areas, including:
- Biological Latency and how it shapes the fate of competing populations
- Stochastic Duality and its relationship to Exchangeability and Intertwining
- Lookdown Representations and the propagation of exchangeability
- Griffiths representations of the generators of a Levy Diffusion
- Continuous State Branching Processes and generalised Coalescent Processes.
- Experimental Evolution: from Data-Driven Mathematical Modeling to experimental design
- Antibiotic Resistance: Through the Lens of Population Genetics
- Game Theory: Bridging Economics and Evolution
- Public Health: Utilizing Individual-Based Models to Assess Policy Impact, such as the Risk of Cardiac Failure in Individuals with HIV
- Interacting Particle Systems: including the Simple Exclusion Process and the Contact Process
- Branching Fractional Brownian Process: Constructed via the Seed Bank Random Graph approach
