CellML Editorial Board

The CellML editorial board is an elected group of five members who have the responsibility to encourage and facilitate discussion about development of the CellML standard.

The CellML Editors are devoted experts who approve official specification documents, correct errata, assess proposals, and manage revisions to CellML. They are elected by the CellML community and serve for 3-year terms as volunteers. The current CellML editorial board may be contacted via their mailing list, . The process by which members of the CellML editorial board are elected is documented here and record of previous elections can be found here. (Editors with terms marked with a * served an extended 4-year term due to the COVID-19 pandemic.)

Hugh Sorby

Hugh Sorby (2023-2026)

Hugh Sorby () is a senior software development specialist at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute. Hugh currently leads the development of the libCellML project.

Michael Pan

Michael Pan (2022-2025)

Michael Pan is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Melbourne. His work seeks to develop energy-based mathematical models for applications in systems and synthetic biology. In particular, he uses bond graphs to systematically enforce physical conservation laws in modelling biology. Current research interests include developing new methodologies for constructing large-scale dynamic models of biochemical pathways, understanding the role energy in heart physiology, and rationally designing enzymatic pathways for biosensing applications.

Alan Garny

Alan Garny (2022-2025)

Alan Garny is the project manager and lead developer of [lib]OpenCOR, a CellML-based modelling environment that relies on COMBINE standards (including CellML). He is also involved in the development of libCellML, a library for CellML-based applications, and he is interested in cardiac electrophysiological modelling.

Michael Clerx

Michael Clerx (2021-2024)

Michael Clerx is a Senior Research Fellow at the University of Nottingham, where he uses a combination of computational modelling and novel experiments to study the mechanisms underlying the healthy and
pathological functioning of cardiac muscle cells. He is the main developer of the simulation tool Myokit, and is (or has been) involved with several CellML-related projects, including the Cardiac Electrophysiology Web Lab and finalising the CellML 2.0 specification.

David Nickerson

David Nickerson (2021-2024)

David Nickerson is a Senior Research Fellow at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. David's research interests are general reproducibility of computational models as well as cardiac and renal physiological modelling. David also helps lead the Physiome Model Repository, the Physiome journal, and the development of libCellML.
