We are a research group at the University of Santo Tomas. Our work centers on nonequilibrium physics and stochastic thermodynamics in small systems, as well as medical physics, with particular emphasis on MRI contrast agents.

Undergraduate and graduate researchers participate in all stages of research, from experimental design to data analysis.


This research area investigates the behavior of small systems under nonequilibrium conditions, including stochastic processes, colloidal systems, and microscopic engines. It integrates experimental design, theoretical modeling, and computational analysis to elucidate how random processes can be harnessed to control and optimize physical systems.

This research area focuses on the development and characterization of materials and techniques to improve medical imaging, with particular emphasis on MRI contrast agents such as iron oxide nanoparticles. It combines experimental characterization, imaging studies, and data analysis to advance understanding and performance of medical imaging systems.
