{{Use dmy dates|date=September 2017}}{{Use British English|date=September 2017}}John R. Terry is a British mathematician, currently Professor of Biomedical Modelling at the University of Exeter[1] and Director of the EPSRC Centre for Predictive Modelling in Healthcare, a £2M initiative funded by the EPSRC.[2] He is well known for the development and application of mathematical techniques in biology and medicine, notably epilepsy and neuroendocrinology. He is a member of the ILAE task force on Network Diseaes.[3] According to Gateway to Research he has received nearly £10M in research funding,[4] a substantial amount for a mathematician. His research has been recognized internationally, most recently by the University of Melbourne through a Miegunyah Fellowship.[5]

Career

Terry was an undergraduate at the University of Reading before taking a PhD at the University of Surrey. He has held academic positions at Loughborough University, the University of Bristol and the University of Sheffield, before joining the University of Exeter in 2012. Since joining the University of Exeter, he has established the Centre for Biomedical Modelling and Analysis,[6] where he serves as co-director,[7] supported by the Wellcome Trust, as well as being Director of the EPSRC Centre for Predictive Modelling in Healthcare.[8]

Scientific contributions

As a graduate student, Terry focused on synchronization problems in solid state laser systems,[9] before moving into neuroscience during his postdoctoral career. He is most well known for his work in describing the mechanisms of seizures and susceptibility to epilepsy,[10] although he is also highly cited in the field of neuroendocrinology, where along with Stafford Lightman he has described the pituitary-adrenal interplay responsible for hourly rhythms in the stress responsive hormone cortisol.[11]
