Welcome Lior Moneta!
Lior joins us as a predoc to work on the project "Coarse-graining spatio-mechanical networks for shape and stiffness". They will study disordered mechanical networks in biology.…
Welcome new Masters student, Chinmayi!
Chinmayi Subramanya joins us for her Masters thesis work on spectral properties of ensnarled spatial networks -- what happens when two (or more) complex,…
Alicja Szałapak
I’m a PhD student with a background in biology with a dash of coding. At university, I studied natural sciences where I focussed on biochemistry for my bachelor’s and on systems…

I am a theoretical physicist by training, and in the past I have worked with a wide range of complex systems topics from networks through theoretical ecology and synchronization to…
Carlos Duque
I did my BSc in physics at University of Antioquia, Colombia and later moved to the United States to do my PhD in soft matter physics at Umass Amherst. Most of my research has dealt…
Mohammadreza Bahadorian
I am generally interested in nontrivial phenomena emerging from the interplay between dynamics and topology. In the past, I was working on the control theory of complex…
YaeJi joins as a guest student!
YaeJi Kim has joined us to work on a range of interesting projects, including 1D simulation programming, bioinformatics, and segmentation of MDCK cells. Through the…
Modes Lab heads to EMBL Symopsium: Mechanics of Life
Lots of exciting mechanics in biology ahead this week as we travel together to Heidelberg! In the words of the conference organizers: "This…
