Background
  • Research combines physics and cell biology to study biological self-organization
  • Seeks quantitative understanding of biological systems through mechanics, energetics, and constituent self-organization
  • Investigates how biological systems are perturbed in disease and evolve
  • Treats self-organizing biological systems as active matter driven out of equilibrium
  • Emphasizes tight integration of quantitative experiments and theory, developing novel methods for data acquisition
  • Promotes an open, inclusive lab culture that welcomes diverse backgrounds
