Principal and Co-Investigators
(PI) is Professor of Architectural and Urban Computing and former听Dean of The听Bartlett, 听University College London. His research focuses on representing and quantifying the configuration of the built environment in order to investigate the way that this affects the patterns of social and economic behaviour of organisations and communities.听
CBE FRS FBA has held a stream of EPSRC, ESRC, ERC and EU grants that have funded the Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis (CASA) from 1995. The 听Centre 听and 听his 听own 听research 听focuses 听on various types of urban simulation model in which land use and transport activities are forecast at different scales.

He has worked as PI of Co-颅鈥怚 on 48 research grants totalling over 拢18 million and supervised 46 PhD students (most funded by research councils). His publications include sixteen 听books, 听and 听over 听150 refereed journal articles and contributions to edited collections.听
, principally known for pioneering the use of computational techniques in finance, where his team's research underpinned much of the early work on automated fraud detection, and led to the launch of the highly successful SearchSpace company, with current work in Algorithmic Trading.
听FBA FRS is Professor of Urban and Regional Systems in the Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis at University College London. He is Chair of the Home Office Science Advisory Council and of the Lead Expert Group for the GO-颅Science Foresight Project on the Future of Cities. He was responsible for the introduction of 听a number of 听model building techniques which 听are now in common 听use internationally - such as the use of 'entropy' in building spatial interaction models.
's research focuses on modelling and analysing urban systems from the perspective of complexity sciences. Her main branches of research are urban scaling laws, hierarchies in urban systems, defining city boundaries, and the analysis of urban processes using percolation theory and networks.
