Research Interests
I am interested in the theoretical physics of biologically motivated systems far from
equilibrium.
equilibrium.
- embryonic morphogenesis
- understanding the complex dynamics in stochastic spatial population models
- genotypic and phenotypic heterogeneity in bacterial populations
- design principles of gene regulatory networks
- statistics of rare events in reaction-diffusion systems
