Research Interests

Dr. Huber is currently working on problems in biological physics, with an emphasis on the interplay of statistical mechanics, biomechanics, and fluid dynamics. This includes statistical descriptions of fluid and transport problems, the nonlinear elasticity characterizing mechanics at the cellular scale, and transport in disorder media, as well as studies of cellular locomotion, membrane conformation and transportation.
