My research interests lie in the intersection of mathematics, mechanics and biology. I am currently developing models to better comprehend and estimate biological behavior of the human anatomy, using tools from differential geometry, geometric mechanics and dynamical systems.

As a general motivation principle, I try to connect deep mathematical concepts with my extensive preparation in engineering, to clarify and illuminate the intuition. In particular, in recent years I have combined the study of shapes spaces and Hamiltonian systems to solve problems in registration and segmentation of medical images, and to define a dynamical model for human organ growth.
