My research focuses on both fundamental aspects of statistical physics and its applications in complex biological systems.

​

 

Some projects and research interests:

 

• Developing finite-time control frameworks to manipulate the dynamics of fast-evolving pathogen populations

​

• Elucidating the role of thermodynamic constraints in fitness of an organism such as metabolic power consumption and molecular transport

​

• Studying phase separation and transport properties in active (biological) mixtures
