Research summary

Charles S. Wright studies how individual living cells grow, divide, and maintain stable internal states despite inherent randomness in their molecular processes, combining quantitative imaging with statistical and physical modeling. His work spans single bacterial cells, unicellular organisms, and subcellular transport systems like endosomes, aiming to find simple, general mathematical patterns underlying seemingly noisy biological behavior over time and across generations.
