Overview
Personal profile
I am a physicist and engineer with a strong focus on the mathematical and physical modeling of biological systems, particularly in the context of thermal and radiation-based phenomena. My research interests include light–matter interactions and their applications in medicine and biology, as well as quantum optics and emerging directions in quantum biology and biomolecular systems. I work on the dynamical properties of nanostructure networks in condensed matter environments and on the thermodynamic behavior of complex systems. Through this work, I seek to connect fundamental physical principles with experimentally relevant processes and to develop predictive frameworks that bridge physics and the life sciences in innovative and impactful ways.
