Omenn-Darling Fellow
Princeton University
Mercerville, New Jersey, United States
I am a biophysicist/bioengineer working at Princeton University as an Omenn-Darling postdoctoral fellow. My research interests lie at the intersection of engineering, applied physics, and biology, where I combine theory and quantitative experimentation to address fundamental questions about the governing principles of living systems. In particular, I am interested in intelligent motion in living systems at the molecular and cellular scales: from the self-organization in cytoskeletal architectures to cellular navigation in complex environments. By understanding the principles of life shaped over billions of years of evolution, I aim to further design materials and tools with myriad applications in engineering and life sciences. Previously, I received training in biophysics at Cornell University, as well as in applied physics (photonics) and electrical engineering in my hometown of Tehran, Iran.
