Biophysics and Mathematical Biology Lab

Welcome

The Biophysics and Mathematical Biology Lab at Binghamton University integrates mathematical models with experimental data to elucidate the intricate mechanisms governing non-intuitive cell biology phenomena. This encompasses a range of topics such as cell motility, polarization, volume regulation, electro-homeostasis, signal transduction, and various other biophysics challenges. 

Areas of focus: Mathematical biology, Mechanobiology, Cell mechanics, Biophysics, Electrophysiology, and Computational physics


Mathematics

We leverage advanced mathematical models built upon rigorous physiological and physical principles to unlock groundbreaking insights into complex biological processes. 

Experiments

We integrate quantitative biology and engineering design to unlock the secrets of mechanobiology and cell communication, paving the way for novel therapeutic strategies. 

Outreach

We bridge the gap between classrooms and cutting-edge science and engineering experiences through our collaboration with local schools, fueling the pipeline of future innovators. 

We're looking for talented researchers to contribute to our cutting-edge research in biophysics and mechanobiology. If you're passionate about the intersection of physics, mathematics, and biology and have a strong track record of research experience, we encourage you to apply. To apply, please submit a single PDF file containing: (1) A CV with a full list of publications; (2) A 1-2 page summary of your research experience and technical expertise; (3) A 1-2 page document outlining your research goals and plans; (4) Transcripts (undergraduate and graduate, if applicable); and (5) Contact information for three professional references. Please submit your application to Prof. Yizeng Li.
