Abstract:

We primarily study three aspects of microfluidics: the physics of microfluidics, the engineering of microfluidic devices, and the application of microfluidics to biology and materials science. We examine phenomena such as clogging and drop formation, and develop models for the physical mechanisms and principles behind these behaviors. Secondly, we develop new ways to create, control, and manipulate microfluidic droplets. Finally, we apply microfluidic drops and devices to questions in biology and materials science. We also use drops to encapsulate actives such as pharmaceuticals for targeted drug delivery with smart materials, or air as an acoustic contrast agent for seismic imaging of oil reservoirs.
