Overview of My Research
Multidisciplinary Scientist
Greetings! My name is Trevor and I recently earned my PhD in Physics from UC Berkeley. At Princeton University, I am currently an independent postdoctoral researcher at the Center for the Physics of Biological Function (CPBF) and at the Princeton Center for Theoretical Science (PCTS), a Future Faculty in the Physical Sciences (FFPS) Fellow, and a Schmidt Science Fellow. As a scientist, I am interested in understanding how structure and order is created at many length scales from cellular protein aggregates to celestial movements. Additionally, I have the passion of using social media and my blog to communicate science to the general public.
