Research Interest

His research interests cover the fundamentals and applications of microfluidics with special interest in particle and cell manipulations via either externally imposed (e.g., electric field and magnetic field) or internally induced (e.g., inertial lift and/or elastic lift in Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid flows) force fields. Fundamental and applied research in micro- and nano-fluidics for Lab-on-a-chip devices.
