Research Interests: Regulated cell alignment and tissue organization are vital in health and disease. To systematically investigate how cells respond to patterns, we achieve precise control over their arrangement through molecularly defined scaffolds. We innovate a continuous imaging platform tracking thousands of cells over days. Leveraging reams of data, we develop a hybrid procedure that utilizes statistical learning approaches to extend the state-of-the-art physics models.
