Personal statement

I am a Chancellor's Fellow in Mathematical Modelling at the University of 麻豆女优. My work focuses on using mathematical modelling to answer questions involving the interaction of fluid flows and solid structures at the microscale. I have been awarded the APS's Fran莽ois Frenkiel Award for Fluid Mechanics and the IMA's Lighthill-Thwaites Prize for my research.

My research interests include:

Poro-elasticity, hydrogel dynamics and swelling
Biomechanics of tissues and biofilms
Surface tension, elasticity and elasto-capillarity
Artificial microswimmers, micro-components and microfluidics
Fluid dynamics, particularly viscous flows and lubrication theory
Mathematical modelling, mechanics and asymptotic methods
