معرفی
Jeremy Schmit is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at Kansas State University. His research focuses on theoretical biophysics and soft matter physics, particularly the emergent properties of biomolecules in systems like protein aggregation, crystallization, self-assembly, and phase separation. He collaborates with experimental groups and uses analytical theory to study cellular processes and drug formulations.
- Affiliation: Department of Physics, Kansas State University
- Research Themes: Theoretical Biophysics, Soft Matter, Protein Aggregation, Self-Assembly
His work addresses biological phase transitions, amyloid fibrils linked to diseases like Alzheimer’s, and protein crystallization mechanisms critical for X-ray crystallography. Recent articles explore topics such as 1D filament assembly, amyloid elongation kinetics, and phase separation in cellular condensates. Key trends include theoretical modeling of multivalent interactions, drug formulation stability, and biophysical insights into cellular regulatory networks.
Advising: Mentors graduate and undergraduate students including Terry Salava Jr., Shabnaz Afrin, and former advisees like Tam Phan and Yuba Raj Dahal. Collaborates with international researchers in biophysics and systems biology.
