Zhou Fang

I am a mathematician and control theorist working at the interface of math, control theory, and biology. My ultimate goal is to develop mathematical control theory that provides fundamental guidelines for controlling and engineering living cells. My research interests encompass a variety of scientific fields that have potential for my research goal; some are listed as follows.
