As a co-first author, I'm thrilled to share our latest study on understanding the mechanics behind (dis)entanglement of blackworms. I'm truly grateful for the opportunity to contribute to defining the rules of entangled animal collectives! @BhamlaLab .

Thrilled to share that our latest research, "Flotation of Aquatic Worms and Other Hyponeuston", is now published on Interface Focus— and we landed the cover art! 🪱. This project was a collaborative dive into how blackworms and other organisms navigate the air-water interface.

I'm excited to share that I'll be defending my PhD dissertation! 🎓 My research dives into “worm blobs”—tangled structures that adapt to changing environments, escape predators, and float together using surface tension ("worm buoy"). Curious? Send a DM for the Zoom link!
