My group's research is in the application of feedback and control to networked systems, with applications in biology and autonomy.  Current projects include work on biomolecular feedback systems, novel architectures for control systems, and networked control systems (see my [[Research Overview|research overview]] for more details).
My group's research is in the application of feedback and control to networked systems, with applications in biology and autonomy.  Current projects include design and implementation of synthetic cells and verification and testing of safety-critical systems (see my [[Research Overview|research overview]] for more details).

Note: I am currently sabbatical through ~Dec 2026, and I am not starting any new students or postdocs in my group nor hosting visitors or SURF students during this time. If you are interested in the work we are doing in my group, I encourage you to take a look at some of my collaborators at Caltech.

Research

My group's research is in the application of feedback and control to networked systems, with applications in biology and autonomy. Current projects include design and implementation of synthetic cells and verification and testing of safety-critical systems (see my research overview for more details).

Teaching

The list below is the courses that I have taught at Caltech (or at least most of them). The course links will take you to the (current) course homepage, where you can find the syllabus, handouts, and homework sets. The links for specific terms take you to the course homepage for that term. Links to older courses are available on a separate page.
