Research
George recently completed a PhD in the Biological Physics group of Professor Raymond Goldstein in DAMTP, studying collective motion, namely phenomena resulting from the interactions of many individuals. He is interested in investigating flows in absorbent media from a dual experimental and theortical perpective, particularly focussing on bacterial biofilms and hydrogel.
