Alumni

Joshua is a theoretical polymer physicist whose research is focused on developing computational approaches to understand and engineer complex molecular processes in materials science and biology. Following a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Cornell University, he received his Ph.D. in Molecular Engineering from the University of Chicago under the guidance of Juan de Pablo where he worked to explain the biophysical interactions that control the compaction of DNA into chromatin.
