Our group works on building computational models for self-organization in biological systems across scales with a vision of writing down the design principles of functional biomaterials. We use multiple tools of engineering and applied physics as the problem in hand needs. The specific problem will be decided based on the mutual interest of the student and the PI. Some example problems currently our group is interested are:

(i) Developing a particle-based simulation framework to study three dimensional self-assembly of cells. 

(ii) Developing a framework for designing artificial tissue driven by mechanical and chemical patterns. 

(iii) Developing a model for self-assembly of cells by long-range interaction of cells. 

(iv) Adapting the physics of flexible polymers to understand chromatin dynamics.
