Micro and Nano Fluidics

Objectives: 

• Develop the science and technological base needed for the effective use of micro and nano-fluidic systems. 

To this end, we are studying complex flow phenomena involving single phase and particle-laden
(i.e., beads, cells, and macromolecules) flows driven by pressure, electric, and magnetic fields, and by surface tension. 
• Develop microfluidic and nanofluidic components and systems
• Study liquid transport under extreme confinement

Areas of Research:

• Magneto-Hydrodynmics(MHD)
• Electrokinetics
• Buoyant Microfluidics
• Particulate Flow
• Biological Interactions
• Nanofluidics
• Microfluidic Pumps and Stirrers
• A System for Pathogen Detection in Oral Fluids
