Thomas Gregor

Thomas Gregor is a professor of physics and biophysics at Princeton University, affiliated with the Department of Physics. His research focuses on biological physics, including the physics of cellular processes, biological pattern formation, gene regulatory networks, and precision measurements in multicellular organisms. He is also head of the unit "Physics of Biological Function" at the Institut Pasteur in Paris, France. His work involves optics, imaging, image analysis, and machine learning. Gregor's research has been published in prominent journals, and he has received several honors, including an ERC Synergy Grant and a Searle Scholarship. He runs the Laboratory for the Physics of Life at Princeton University.

Thomas Gregor is a researcher at Princeton University and the Institut Pasteur, focusing on biophysics, gene regulation, and self-organization. His work explores the dynamics of gene expression, morphogen gradients, and the interplay between transcriptional activity and developmental patterning. Gregor's research integrates experimental and theoretical approaches to understand how biological systems achieve precise spatial and temporal control during development. His studies include the analysis of transcriptional bursting, enhancer-promoter interactions, and the role of noise in gene regulation. By combining live imaging, mathematical modeling, and computational analysis, Gregor investigates the physical principles underlying cellular decision-making and morphogenesis.
