About

I am a Lecturer in Theoretical Soft Matter and Biological Physics in the Molecular and Nanoscale Physics group at the University of Leeds (UK).

My research interests focusses on molecular self-organisation in out-of-equilibrium conditions. In particular, my research investigates how multivalent interactions play a crucial role in living systems (biomolecular condensates), molecular probes, gel-formation, non-linear rheology, and flow-induced crystallisation of silk fibres.

Funding

My research has been made possible thanks to funding from the UKRI, EPSRC, Dutch Polymer Institute (NL), Physics of Life (UK), Biological Physical Sciences network (York, UK) and the Erasmus Exchange Programme (EU).
