Research Interests

My research has an experimental emphasis with a focus on soft matter and sensing technology. We characterize the flow physics of complex fluids, often at small length scales, as well as soft solids. We develop sensing technology with applications to the environment and the medical field. Related work includes microoptical devices, the development of functional materials and fabrication processes for sensors and actuators. Current research activities include the following areas:

• Complex Fluids
• Poroelasticity
• Microneedles
• Needle Puncture
• Sensing Technology
• Microoptical Systems
