研究领域
Physical Chemistry
I am interested in the experimental and theoretical study of soft matter, active matter and molecular systems that are in and out of thermodynamic equilibrium in order to test hypothesis from the physical, biophysical and biochemical world. As well as the development of tools with unprecedented possibilities in sensing and probing at the microscale and nanoscale, our research develops controllable model systems that offer fresh ways of looking at existing outstanding problems from the natural, biophysical and physical world, often uncovering novel and exciting behaviours that had remained hidden due to the complexity of the original systems. Examples range from the dynamics of single molecules within the living cell, to the development of artificial microswimmers for target delivery and bioremediation, from the origin and evolution of life as a consequence of out-of-equilibirum physics and chemistry to the field of movement ecology. Our way to tackle these problems stems from a very interdisciplinary approach at the crossroad of soft matter, nanotechnology, nanophotonics and statistical physics.
