Research interest

In the last few years my research interest has transitioned to physics education research. My research focus spans the research-based development materials for inquiry-based student-centered learning and teaching, the development of scientific abilities, the transformation of experienced traditional university teachers into reformed teachers, and many more.

I am also interested in biophysics, in particular in the physics of biomolecular motors, both in general and specifically in the biomotor dynein. I study the mechanoelastic properties of molecular motors and relate them to the ATP hydrolysis to describe the kinetics of their processive stepping (dynein) or collaborative work (muscle myosin). My previous research tackled also a variety of topics from the soft matter physics, such as colloids, liquid crystals, and active materials. My theoretical work relies on computer or analytic modelling based mainly on phenomenological approaches and/or Monte Carlo simulations.
