In this episode of ADHD Beyond the Label, Dr Phil Anderton and John Reynolds discuss ADHD and inflammation with leading Professor Dan Nicolau Jr.

Dan is a mathematician, engineer and physician. He completed his DPhi in mathematics at Oxford and his medical degree at Green-Templeton College, Oxford. He was a Miller Postdoctoral Fellow at UC Berkeley in the laboratory of MAR Koehl.

Dan's research focusses on using mathematics and computer science methods to better understand complex biological systems, particularly as they relate to disease states, inflammation and ageing. A unifying theme of this work is viewing immune networks as devices of computation and control, with disease states disturbing the native topology.
