I am broadly interested in problems at the intersection of physics, chemistry, biology, and computation. By this I do not mean the traditional "computation in service of natural science" (e.g., bioinformatics, computational chemistry, or molecular dynamics simulation). Rather, certain molecular systems — such as a test tube of reacting chemicals, a genetic regulatory network, or a growing crystal — can be interpreted as doing computation themselves... natural science in service of computation, if you will. I want to understand the fundamental logical and physical limits to computation by such means.
