Feedback and control in biological circuits, synthetic biology, molecular programming.
Profile
Research in Richard Murray's group focuses on the application of feedback and control to networked systems, with applications in biology and autonomy. Current projects include analysis and design of biomolecular feedback circuits, synthesis of discrete decision-making protocols for reactive systems, and design of highly resilient architectures for autonomous systems.
