Geometry and mechanics of higher-order biological structure My research goal is to understand the organizing principles governing the action and form of macromolecular complexes. Most biological processes employ proteins as the active elements. However, the majority of processes are accomplished by large assemblies comprised of many different proteins, rather than by single proteins acting in isolation. While a great deal of detail is known about the structure of many individual proteins which comprise the constituent parts of these complexes, in only a few cases is there a comparable level of understanding of the action of the complex as a whole. In essence, the field currently has a detailed catalog of the parts from which such biological machines are constructed, but largely lacks an understanding of how these parts are put together, and how the properties of individual parts contribute to the function of the machine as a whole.
