Understanding Lipid Bilayer Mechanics: A Beginner's Guide
Lipid bilayers are one of the most important structures in biology. Every cell in your body is surrounded by one, and understanding how they work at a physical level is...
About Me
I'm Keheliya Kudahewa — a physicist fascinated by the boundary between biology and physics. My work centres on understanding how lipid membranes behave at the molecular level, using a combination of theory, molecular dynamics simulations and computational analysis.
This site is my notebook: a place to share what I learn, collect resources for fellow researchers and students, and write about the beautiful physics that underpins life.
