Complex Fluids and Microfluidics
Microfluidics is a multidisciplinary field intersecting engineering, physics, chemistry, biochemistry, nanotechnology, and biotechnology, with practical applications to the design of systems in which small volumes of fluids are handled.
Prof. Abolhasani's Group
The Abolhasani lab is focused on development of microscale flow chemistry technologies tailored for studies of fundamental mechanisms for photovoltaic applications, and more.
Prof. Hsiao's Group
The Hsiao lab focuses on biomimetic and responsive materials, complex fluids, soft matter, and colloidal hydrodynamics.
Prof. Wei's Group
The Wei group is developing next-generation field-deployable molecular imaging, sensing, and diagnostic tools for plants and humans.
Prof. Dickey’s Group
Studies several types of complex liquids that can be harnessed for advanced micro- and nanofabrication as well as photocurable liquid polymers that find use in patterning, nanofabrication and programmable materials.
Prof. Velev’s Group
Develops new methods for liquid and particle manipulation and transportation on the nanoscale.
