We are a group of biophysicists, physicists and chemists at UCL. We study artificial and biological soft active matter. We are interested in its fundamental behaviours and its applications to healthcare and material sciences. We currently have three PhD positions available in the group and we are always looking for bright people to join us at any level. Get in touch!
