Research Interests:

The focus of my research group is to study complex fluids (polymers, colloids, DNA, proteins) using theoretical and computational techniques.

We use theory and simulations to get a molecular-level understanding of experimentally observed phenomena and use this insight to predict as yet unknown mesoscopic structures and dynamics in nanostructured materials and biological systems.
