My research interests encompass statistical physics, soft matter systems in and out of equilibrium, disordered systems, and biological systems. At present, my focus is on employing Molecular Dynamics simulations to comprehend the microscopic mechanisms that govern macroscopic properties. Then, utilizing Machine Learning tools to optimize microscopic or structural parameters and tune them to create custom materials with desired functionalities. This research is pertinent to the design of new materials with specific functionalities, as it aids in comprehending the relationship between structural composition and physical properties, and to leran how these structural components can be adjusted to achieve the desired end product.
