Research Interests
                  am a theoretical (and aspiring computational) biophysicist.  I am interested in physics of soft matter and biological systems.  I am especially interested in and have conducted original research in biomechanics, physics of lipid bilayer membranes, and DNA-protein interactions. I am currently working on a problem regarding loop-inducing DNA enzymes with Dr John Marko’s group at Northwestern University.
