I am interested in collective cell migrations and pattern formations in confluent tissues. Currently, I am studying the influences of cell-level heterogeneities (mechanical heterogeneity, heterogeneity in the motility of cells, etc.) in epithelial tissues to examine if these induce any emergent phenomena in the system.
