Présentation

Our research is at the boundary between physics and biology. By using tools from statistical mechanics and disordered systems, we aim at understanding and learning how to control the behavior of biological systems---from metabolism in bacteria, collective migratory motion in immune cells and bird of flocks, to clustering of molecules in living cells. The interaction with experimentalists is crucial for validating, guiding and building our models, which are developed in order to allow for both computational feasibility and predictive power.
