Sunghan Ro, Ph.D
Sunghan Ro

Welcome!

My name is Sunghan Ro. I am a Research Scientist at the Department of Physics of Harvard University.

My research interests include:

  • Collective phenomena in nonequilibrium systems, such as active matter.
  • Information-theoretic quantification of orders in systems in- and out-of-equilibrium.
  • Stochastic systems: systems governed by Langivin- and Fokker-Planck-type equations, barrier crossing problem and the first passage dynamics of random walkers.
  • Complex biological systems: membraneless organelles formed by phase separation of polymers, emergent interaction between polyelectrolytes mediated by counterions, and nuclear pore complex
