Description:

Title: Inferring thermodynamic limits on non-equilibrium membrane morphologies

Members of the NITMB community are invited to join us for Research-In-Progress meetings, an informal venue for members of the NITMB to discuss ongoing and/or planned research.

Jordon Shivers is a Schmidt AI in Science Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Chicago, where he is jointly mentored by Suri Vaikuntanathan and Aaron Dinner. Shivers is broadly interested in the physics and engineering of active soft and biological matter, and tackles problems in this area using a combination of computer simulations, theoretical soft matter physics, and machine learning techniques, often in collaboration with experimental groups. 

Learn more about Jordon Shivers’ research and engage in discussion with the NITMB community. Research-In-Progress talks take place on Wednesdays at 3pm at the NITMB office (875 N Michigan Ave., Suite 4010). Snacks and coffee will follow.
