Dima Atanasova and I are currently working on two work packages as part of the EC FP7 funded project ‘CascEff: Modelling of dependencies and cascading effects for emergency management in crisis situations.’  We will be posting regular updates on the project on Twitter between now and the completion of the tasks in December 2015.

Our research has recently been highlighted in two magazines:
