I am broadly interested in understanding biological phenomena using methods and concepts from physics. My current research focuses on the dynamics of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and its relation to evolution. Using theoretical and computational methods, I am working on understanding mechanisms of IDPs/RNA phase separation into biomolecular condensates and how do condensates age (gelation/glass transition). In the future, i will switch to experimental side and develop new imaging or spectroscopy technology to understand the structure of condensates/IDPs and their kinetics based on insights obtained from theory and computation.
