    Biography

    I research the physics of complex self-assembly processes, examining how small, relatively simple particles can assemble themselves by basic processes into complex structures.

    Research Interests

    Complex crystal nucleation and growth processes, algorithmic self-assembly, and finding unexpected behaviours in basic physical processes.
