Research Overview

My research spans many disciplines, with the common theme of trying to elucidate the unseen through the lens of fluid dynamics. My research areas include: fluid dynamics of the brain, turbulence and viscosity at high-energy density conditions, biologically-inspired hydrodynamic sensing. My group uses experiments and simulations to achieve our goals, and we collaborate with the Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµ Medlcal Center, the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, and the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, among others.
