Research topics:
Experimental and theoretical study of nonlinear dynamic phenomena in chemistry and biology:
- Modeling and simulations of physiological processes; in particular, reaction-diffusion, electrodiffusion and stochastic phenomena (ion channel gating) related to calcium signaling in cardiac myocytes
- Advanced data processing (e.g. “capturing chromosome conformation”)
- Experimental study of interactions between proteins and nucleic acids
- Experimental investigation and modeling of uncatalyzed Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillators
Methods: fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic voltametry (experimental); ODEs and PDEs solving, Monte Carlo (computational).
