About me

My research interests lie at the intersection of biological physics and active matter, with a special focus on active droplets. These droplets are fundamentally out-of-equilibrium and offer a multitude of applications in biology and lab-on-chip devices.

I am particularly interested in the role of hydrodynamics in governing the motion and properties of self-propelled droplets. I want to understand the interactions between fluid dynamics and the activity of droplets, investigating how these factors influence their motion and interactions with complex environments.

To tackle these questions, I am using a combination of analytical techniques and simulations.
