Research Interests
The aim of our group is to understand the physical properties of biological and soft condensed matter systems that are driven out of equilibrium. We use both analytical approaches (Equilibrium and Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics, Hydrodynamics) and computational methods (Molecular Dynamics, Brownian Dynamics, Monte Carlo) to investigate the dynamics of systems ranging from the cell membrane and the cell cytoskeleton to polymers and colloids in confinement.
