My research combines analytical and computational methods of statistical
mechanics to understand the physical principles behind the functioning of
complex biological and biomedical systems. I am especially interested in
developing coarse-grained (mesoscopic) molecular models which can be used
to study the long-time evolution and thermodynamic properties of large
molecular assemblies consisting of lipids and biopolymers (e.g., DNA,
poly-peptides). Such models may help us bridge the gap between the
molecular and macroscopic regimes and lead to better insight on how the
molecular building blocks and the interactions between them determine the
structure and other physical properties of the supramolecular assemblies
that they form. A more detailed description of my research ... |
