Kirill Korolev
Kirill Korolev is an Associate Professor of Physics and Bioinformatics at Boston University. After receiving his PhD in theoretical physics from Harvard University in 2010, he spent three years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a Pappalardo Postdoctoral Fellow. Professor Korolev uses mathematical modeling, computation, and statistical analysis of data to understand evolution and population […]

Throughout evolutionary history, life has explored the laws of physics, creating remarkable new strategies to perpetuate itself. Our group seeks to understand how these strategies arise, using microbial populations as a model. We are interested in how the physical and chemical environment influences microbes, and how these microbes in turn engineer that very environment. In […]

I am interested in theoretical problems at the interface of statistical physics and biology. I want to understand how large-scale, collective behaviors observed in biological systems emerge from the interaction of many individual molecular elements, and how these interactions allow cells to perform complex computations in response to environmental cues. I am also a part […]
