Zev Bryant

Associate Professor of Bioengineering and, by courtesy, of Structural Biology
Research Interests
Molecular motors lie at the heart of biological processes from DNA replication to vesicle transport. My laboratory seeks to understand the physical mechanisms by which these nanoscale machines convert chemical energy into mechanical work.

Subhaneil Lahiri

Physical Sci Res Scientist
Research Interests
Our brains store long term memories by adjusting the strengths of the synapses connecting neurons. The tendency for new memories to overwrite old ones leads to a trade-off between learning and remembering: if synapses are too plastic older memories will be wiped out easily, if they are too rigid it becomes difficult to learn new memories. I am studying theoretical models of synapses to understand how their internal structure can be used to balance these effects and maximize their memory storage.
