معرفی
James Harden is Full Professor and Chair of the Department of Physics at the University of Ottawa. His research integrates experimental, computational, and theoretical approaches in biological physics, biomaterials, and soft condensed matter. Key areas include biological physics focusing on polymer physics applications to biomolecular assemblies and cell mechanics, and soft matter research connecting nanostructure to molecular properties.
Research spans biophysics, biomaterials, computational biology, and soft matter systems including hydrogels, proteins, and complex fluids. Recent publications demonstrate consistent focus on phase transitions, material memory effects, cellular mechanics, and biomolecular interactions, with extensive use of advanced techniques like rheo-XPCS.
