The projects usually require some analytical and numerical background in solving ordinary/partial differential equations and some acquaintance with statistical thermodynamics concepts and tools. The projects focus on basic theoretical questions, but are usually driven by experiments and/or computer simulations done in other groups. Currently available projects include:

1. Glass physics and amorphous plasticity
2. Dislocation-mediated plasticity
3. Mechanics of biomaterials
