معرفی
Jennifer Rieser is an Assistant Professor at Emory University, with a main appointment in the Department of Physics and an associated faculty role in Biology. Her research bridges experimental soft matter physics and organismal biophysics, focusing on how environmental physics drives biological adaptations.
- Education
- Ph.D., University of Pennsylvania (2015)
- M.S., Cornell University (2009)
- B.S., Georgia Institute of Technology (2006)
The Rieser Lab employs experimental, computational, and robotic models to explore questions like how natural substrates influence animal behavior, the functionality of convergently evolved morphological features, and cross-species comparisons of adaptive traits. Their work integrates physics and biology for a comparative understanding of organism-environment interactions.
