The collaboration between Portsmouth and Kyoto University was awarded the Daiwa- Adrian prize in I am a member of the Euclid consortium and one of coordinators of WP5 non-standard cosmology simulations in the cosmological simulation working group. I am also a member of the theory working group contributing to a WP on cosmological tests of gravity. I am a co-author of a report Novel Probes of Gravity and Dark Energy from the Dark Energy and CMB working group for the American Physical Society's Division of Particles and Fields long-term planning exercise ( Snowmass ). Teaching and Education TEACHING Undergraduate course Introduction to statistical methods first year Maths course ( ) shared with Dr Daniel Thomas. The course typically had 140 students. PhD core course Theoretical Cosmology ( ). Supervising final year Maths projects Dynamical systems in cosmology (2012, 2013) I gave 2 graduate school lecture courses: Graduate summer school 2008, Aomori, Japan, International research network for dark energy Modified gravity as an alternative to dark energy Graduate winter school, 2011, Tonale, Italy, German TransRegio 33 Modified gravity As an organiser of PhD lectures at ICG, I have introduced a software carpenter workshop in collaboration with GARDnet/SEPnet and ARCHER to increase employability of our postgraduate students. I also initiated joint lectures with the University of Southampton from 2015.
