Erik G. Brandt

I am a graduate student in the Theoretical Physics Department at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH).

My research is focused on theoretical models and computer simulations of the lipid bilayer. The aim is to develop and improve simplified membrane models to gain a better understanding of how biological membranes function in realistic environments.

A lot of interesting physics takes place on small (nanometer) length- and (nanosecond) timescales, where experimental data often is scarce. Computer simulations, involving millions of individual particles, has therefore become an important tool to bridge the gap between theoretical results and experiments.
