PhD Student in Chemistry Investigates Turing Patterns

Description

<p>Chris Konow researches the impact of growth on Turing patterns in the &nbsp;Epstein Lab. Turing patterns are named after the British mathematician &nbsp;Alan Turing, who proposed a mechanism for how differentiation can occur &nbsp;within a homogeneous system. The Epstein and Fraden labs at Brandeis &nbsp;have provided experimental support for Turing's predictions and are &nbsp;currently performing research to improve our understanding of the Turing &nbsp;mechanism.</p>
