Dr Andriy Goychuk

Andriy Goychuk leads a research group at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research and the Lower Saxony Center for AI & Causal Methods in Medicine starting 2025. Before that, he was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he was also supported by the European Molecular Biology Organization. He completed his PhD in Physics in 2021, at the Ludwig-Maximilian-University of Munich, where he was supported by the Graduate School of Quantitative Biosciences Munich.

Dr. Goychuk is interested in understanding the self-organization of living matter across scales, ranging from inflammatory processes and cell dynamics on the tissue scale, to organization in the cell nucleus, to the dynamics of proteins. To that end, he applies and develops theoretical models based on biophysics, statistical mechanics, fluid mechanics, and nonlinear dynamics.
