Albane Thery is an Assistant Professor at the University of Warwick's School of Life Sciences, specializing in the study of how microorganisms, particularly bacteria and plankton, adapt to and navigate through complex biological environments. Her research employs interdisciplinary approaches that combine theoretical modeling and simulations with experimental techniques, aiming to build minimal models of living systems. She investigates the behavior of motile microorganisms under varied environmental conditions, including mechanical and chemical cues in complex biological fluids. Her work is particularly focused on realistic setups that incorporate boundaries and obstacles, moving beyond idealized mathematical models as she examines how physical interactions, like bacterial morphology, influence behaviors such as predation and escape strategies. With a strong emphasis on collaboration, Thery actively pursues connections between individual-scale models in biology and their implications for both ecological and biomedical applications.
