Azadeh Samadani’s lab places a major
emphasis in
combining quantitative experimental methods with theoretical and
computational approaches
to study biological questions at the systems level. Her research
interests
include understanding directional sensing mechanisms in eukaryotic cells, non-genetic individuality
and its effects on the fitness
of a population, noise in biological systems, swimming microorganisms,
population dynamics, pattern formation, predator-prey
interaction, complex materials and microfluidic
devices. For more information please visit Samadani’s
Lab.
