Much of my research involves applying state-of-the-art simulation methods to explore the fascinating physics that occurs in soft matter such as self-assembly, unusual phase behaviour, and non-equilibrium dynamics. A focus is the development and application of novel simulation algorithms that allow phenomena to be revealed that are inaccessible to conventional techniques. An appealing aspects of soft matter physics is that simple models often correspond quite closely to real systems, and this allows us to collaborate meaningfully with experimentalists. Beyond soft matter I am interested in computational and theoretical solutions to a wide range of problems in statistical and chemical physics such as the physical origins of hydrophobic phenomena and wetting transitions in active matter.
