Assistant Professor
Soft Condensed Matter
The focus of my research group lies in the general areas of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics & soft matter systems, such as glassy systems, active materials, athermal/ granular solids and non-reciprocal systems. We are also interested in exploring intelligent fluids, non-equilibrium self-assembly, physical learning, to name a few. For this we employ a variety of numerical and analytical methods, such as molecular dynamics or agent-based simulations, construction and analysis of hydrodynamic equations, Langevin or Fokker-Planck description, etc.
