Bio/Research
The Haw Yang Lab works on problems in the general area of Biophysical Dynamics. On the more abstract level, we seek to understand the manner by which local fluctuations in a complex system may contribute to the system’s function. Examples include how proteins exploit thermally driven conformational changes to achieve their functions, how living cells modulate their intra-cellular local temperature to remain viable, how viruses or nanomedicine carriers dynamically interact with a cell to infect the cell or to accomplish cellular delivery, and how one can control the nanoscale interfacial hydrodynamical fluctuations to manipulate micro- and nano-swimmers in three dimensions (3D).
