Welcome to my lab group’s website! Our work applies mathematics to unravel curious movements in living systems. Recent research projects have modeled the transport of microscopic organisms and nutrients that are relevant to ecology, sustainability and human health. We collaborate with researchers across disciplines in mathematics, life sciences and engineering. Please email me if you are interested in joining our group or starting a new collaboration.

Latest News: We have an opening for a postdoc position! Details are available in the flyer. The project was recently funded by a joint NIH-NSF program at the interface of biological and mathematical Sciences, as reported in UH News.

Brief Bio: I was born in Osaka (Japan), raised in Geneva (Switzerland), and studied math as a Gates Scholar in Cambridge (UK). I then worked as a postdoc at the intersection of math, physics and chemistry at NYU in New York. Since joining UHM in Hawaii, I’ve raised my international and interdisciplinary profile (see my updated CV).
