Dr Upadhyay is working in the Locke group and in close collaboration with Webb group, where he is performing data-driven computational modelling (stochastic simulations in Matlab) of plant (Arabidopsis) circadian clocks.
I am a theoretical biologist interested in the evolution of novelty. Since 2021, I am a research associate at the Sainsbury Laboratory, University of Cambridge (UK).
I like to think of life as organised into many interconnected levels: complex reaction networks make cells, many cells make organisms, organisms interact and form ecosystems. My main research question is: How did this multi-level complexity evolve?
