Research Description
The Forest Group focuses on the mathematics of, and translational applications to, multiple applied science challenges, such as lung biology and disease, virology and immunology, nanoparticle drug strategies for human cancer, chromosomal organization and dynamics in living cells, and mechano-chemical mechanisms of cell motility, We also delve into problems associated with the design and optimization of polymer nanocomposites with extreme properties, active soft matter, understanding the generic principles of soft matter, and encoding them into predictive modeling for feedback with experimental collaborators.
