Bakti Vasiev is Senior Lecturer in Mathematical Sciences. His research focuses on mathematical aspects of nonlinear dynamics and pattern formation in biological systems, and is associated with theoretical studies of biological development, demographics and aging. His early works were devoted to investigation of propagating waves in excitable systems and chemotactic motion of aggregating cells (Dictyostelium population). Recent research interests include mechanisms of formation of morphogenetic patterns and migration of cells in developing tissues. He is also working on analysis of the structure of human populations as it is reflected by demographic data.
