Weida Liao will carry out research towards a PhD degree in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge. Her research will be on modelling the biological locomotion of cells. It is known that algal cells actively swim in the ocean in response to chemical and light cues. During her PhD, Weida Liao will use mathematical modelling to predict and understand the dynamics of the cells observed in real life. She will develop mathematical and computational models in order to develop an understanding of the biophysics and the biological fluid dynamics of swimming algae and their dynamics in a fluctuating environment.

廖伟达将在剑桥大学应用数学与理论物理系进行博士学位研究。她的研究将是模拟细胞的生物运动。众所周知，藻类细胞在海洋中游动是对化学和光信号的反应。在攻读博士学位期间，廖伟达将使用数学建模来预测和理解在现实生活中观察到的细胞动力学。她将开发数学和计算模型，以发展对生物物理学和游泳藻类的生物流体动力学及其在波动环境中的动力学的理解。
