Modeling of Nano- and Biophysical Systems
Jonas Nyvold Pedersen
We use physics, math, and statistics to model nano- and biophysical systems, with a particular focus on devices for healthcare.
Research topics include, e.g., nanofluidics, optical mapping of DNA, DNA in confinement, and cell motility.
Almost all projects involve collaboration with experimentalists and analysis of experimental data (e.g, images and time series).
