Research
I am working on theoretical research of soft active matter to understand
various biological phenomena through fluids. Soft matter deals with
fluid dynamics and statistical mechanics of soft materials such as
polymers and liquid crystals. In contrast, active matter aims to expand
the scope to biological materials such as cells. In this context, I have
been researching intracellular rheology and diffusion,
elastohydrodynamics in cell membranes, microswimmer, and variational
principles of fluctuating hydrodynamics. In recent years, I have also
been analyzing the behavior of objects with broken mechanical energy
conservation in fluids.
