Jasna Brujic

Jasna Brujic is a Professor of Physics at New York University, affiliated with the PHY department. Her research focuses on biophysics and the Center for Soft Matter Physics, with interests in experimental physics, single molecule force spectroscopy, mechanics of proteins, protein folding under force, model colloidal proteins, jammed matter, and stress transmission in emulsions. She has contributed to numerous publications in prestigious journals such as PNAS, Nature, and Soft Matter. Her work includes studies on force-dependent polymorphism in type IV pili, random packing of polydisperse spheres, and the mechanical folding of ubiquitin. Brujic has received several fellowships and awards, including the NSF CAREER Award and the Burroughs Wellcome Fund CASI Award.

Jasna Brujic is a Professor at New York University specializing in Biophysics, Jamming, Single molecules, and Soft Matter. Her research explores the mechanical behavior of soft materials and biological systems, focusing on the dynamics of single molecules and the structural properties of jammed systems. She investigates the interplay between forces and molecular interactions in processes such as protein folding, emulsion packing, and cell adhesion. Her work combines experimental and theoretical approaches to understand the physical principles governing complex systems. Key areas of interest include the mechanical folding of proteins, the statistical mechanics of jammed emulsions, and the role of forces in biological interactions.
