The work in my group focuses on mechanisms of cell organization. We use a suite of quantitative approaches employed by an interdisciplinary team of biologists, engineers, physicists, and applied mathematicians. We combine cutting-edge imaging with analysis of genetically tractable live fungal and mammalian cells, mathematical and statistical modeling, and cell free reconstitution to study cytoplasm organization and cell shape sensing.
