Research interests
I study how microorganisms, like bacteria and plankton, adapt and move in complex biological environments – from multispecies marine ecosystems to oral biofilms. My work is a combination of theory and simulations, and I build minimal models for complex living systems, with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary work and collaborations, both for theory and experiments. For example, I model how these bacteria and algae move in confined spaces and flowing biological fluids. I am also interested in understanding how small, micrometre-scale organisms can sense cues from their environment for navigation, predation or escape strategies.
