Our group is funded by an NSF CAREER Award on symmetry-based microfluidics and its application to perturbation-free micromanipulations. Congratulations to all!
Pooja's exciting work "Geometric effects induce anomalous size-dependent active transport in structured environments" (in collaboration with Ajay Gopinathan and David Quint) has just been published in Physical Review Fluids. Congratulations, Pooja!
I am an experimentalist interested in the fundamental physics problems to do with microorganisms interacting with their emergent environments. Studying these problems leads to the understanding of colonial transport and microbial development crucial to many biological processes. Through multi-scale...
Geometric effects in bacterial transport We investigate geometric effects in many biological proccesses in fluids, especially on the mutual impacts of individual sizes and structural geometries on bactreial transport. Symmetry-based microfluidics We classify microfluidic flows through symmetries...
