Research Interests: Stochastic thermodynamics and information theory applied to biological systems

Research Interests: I work on a model of mammalian hearing that uses self-organized criticality to tune the cochlea and then examine the resulting eigenmode structure.

Research Interests: I am interested in applying statistical physics and information theory tools to understand biological systems.

Research Interests: I am interested in applying tools from physics to understand neural systems and behavior specifically, and biological phenomena more broadly.

Research Interests: I study how living systems process information using statistical physics and information theory
