Yong Han studied Physics at the National University of Singapore and graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in 2024. Currently, he is a member of the Max Planck School Matter to Life as a Master’s student. In April 2025, he joined the group of David Zwicker as an intern and he intends to study nematic phases in active droplets. During his free time, he enjoys taking a walk and reading books.

Chirag studied physics at the Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee (Master's) and the University of Delhi (Bachelor's) before joining the Zwicker group as a Matter to Life rotation student. His Master's research focussed on experimentally realising the strong coupling effect via surface plasmon resonance. During his stay in the Zwicker group, he intends to study phase separation in multi-component multi-compartment systems. Outside of work, you can find him exploring photography or playing guitar.
