Guillermina Ramirez San Juan is an Assistant Professor of Physics at EPFL, specializing in biophysics and active matter. Her research explores the interplay between mechanical forces and cellular dynamics, focusing on epithelial tissue mechanics, ciliary function, and actin bundle organization. She investigates how physical constraints influence biological processes such as cell migration, tissue invasion, and ciliary coordination. Her work integrates experimental and computational approaches to uncover the role of cytoskeletal structures in cellular behavior and collective motion. Ramirez San Juan's studies highlight the importance of spatial heterogeneity and mechanosensing in biological systems.
