Major Research Interests
Biological processes must obey the laws of physics, but are also subject to functional requirements and shaped by the forces of evolution. Our group is interested in how functional requirements are implemented within the given physical constraints. The research areas of the group are: (i) motility and active matter, (ii) stochastic dynamics in biology, (iii) gene regulation, cell growth, and population dynamics.
