The group recently officially welcomed Tapan Goel, a new postdoctoral researcher. Tapan is a biophysicist broadly interested in how complex behaviors emerge in biological systems from relatively simple “inter-particle” interactions. To answer this question, Tapan uses tools from non-linear dynamics and statistical physics. In the Weitz Group, Tapan will be working to develop models of virus-host interactions to understand how viral strategies evolve over time.
