We study mechanisms that position organelles, such as mitochondria

Biophysical properties of the cytoplasm and organelle networks

Transport principles across heterogeneous, intracellular environments

To sustain cellular life, energy-consuming reactions need to be carried out at specific times and intracellular sites.

This is, in part, achieved by robust and dynamic organization within the cell. To understand the processes that control organization, we use dividing eukaryotic cells, which undergo extensive intracellular rearrangements, as a model system to study the:
