Lipid and organelle biology: a physics viewpoint

I am fascinated by the physical principles underlying lipid and organelle biology. My team combines in vitro and ex vivo approaches with cell biology to reveal the kinetics, energetics, and dynamics of membrane-associated regulatory mechanisms. By examining how these events influence organelle function and cellular homeostasis, my group aims to uncover fundamental mechanisms connecting molecular, mesoscopic, and macroscopic cellular behaviors.
