研究领域

Our group has developed the simplest and most used model of biological catch-binding, a fascinating biological phenomenon whereby the application of a pulling force increases bond lifetime (!). We created a physically intuitive description of catch-binding and derived universal laws that unite experimental data obtained through different pulling regimes. We are investigating the atomic origin of catch-binding by steered molecular dynamics and study other counter-intuitive force- induced effects in molecular biology, such as force- induced allostery. New generations of electro-optic devices based on polymers showing order-disorder transitions are being designed by colleagues in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. Our group developed a statistical- mechanical model of the ordering that clearly explains how the efficiency of the polymeric materials depends on molecular structure, temperature, electric field and other tunable parameters.
