Molecular Cell Biomechanics Laboratory
The Molecular Cell Biomechanics Laboratory studies biological systems across scales, combining mechanobiology, molecular modeling, and data-driven methods to better understand how structure, force, and dynamics influence function.
Research Areas
Cell & Nuclear Biomechanics
Cell and nuclear mechanics, force transmission across the nuclear envelope, and structure-function relationships at the cell-nucleus interface.
Microbiome & Bacterial Community Biomechanics
Biomechanics and multiscale modeling of host-microbe systems, bacterial communities, gut biogeography, and ecological dynamics.
Statistical Learning & Biological Language Processing
Statistical learning, biological language processing, and model-driven discovery across sequence, genome, and microbiome data.
