Personal profile

Research interests

My research interests lie at the intersection of applied mathematics, physics, and engineering. I develop and interact closely with table-top experiments to study how novel emergent phenomena arise in complex fluid and soft matter systems from the interplay between nonlinear dynamics, collective many-body interactions, and geometrical confinement. 

Some current topics of interest include:

  • Interfacial hydrodynamics and self-assembly of drops and particles
  • Active and driven matter
  • Interfacial robotics
  • Transport phenomena
  • Fluid-structure interaction

If you are a postdoctoral scholar and are interested in pursuing topics related to those listed above, the EPSRC has established a new National Fellowship in Fluid Dynamics. Details can be found here.
