MI am interested in polymer behavior in biological systems using theory and simulation techniques. Theoretical understanding of semiflexible polymers can be used to predict and explain the behavior of actin filaments that constitute the cytoskeleton in cells. Currently, my research focuses on studying the stress relaxation in actin filament networks.
