Prospective graduate students: I admit students through the [http://www.cds.caltech.edu CDS], [http://be.caltech.edu/academics/ssb.html SSB] and [http://www.cs.caltech.edu CS] graduate programs at Caltech.  Many of my students also come from the EE and ME departments, but I do not actively participate in admissions decisions in those programs.
<!-- '''Prospective graduate students''': Students in my group come through the [[http:www.cds.caltech.edu|CDS]], [[http:www.cms.caltech.edu/academics/grad_cms|CMS]], [[http:be.caltech.edu|BE]], [[http:/www.its.caltech.edu/~biochem|BMB]], [[http:www.cms.caltech.edu/academics/grad_acm|ACM]], [[http:www.cms.caltech.edu/academics/grad_cs|CS]] and [[http:www.me.caltech.edu|ME]] graduate programs at Caltech.  Some of my students also come from the CNS and EE departments, but I do not actively participate in admissions decisions in those programs.  Please take a look at my current [[Research Overview|research interests]] to get a sense of what my group is currently working on.  -->
<!-- '''Prospective postdocs''': I typically make decisions about postdocs in the April-May timeframe, when I know what my grants look like for fall.  Please take a look at my current [[Research Overview|research interests]] to see what projects we are currently working on. -->
<!-- Caltech has several postdoc programs that admit exceptionally qualified postdocs for independent study at Caltech:
* Caltech [[http:cmi.caltech.edu|Center for the Mathematics of Information (CMI)]] postdocs - applications due mid-December
* Caltech [[http:www.its.caltech.edu/~bi/fellows.html|Beckman Fellows program]] - applications due early January
-->
'''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|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|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).
