Welcome to the Biofluid Mechanics
Research Laboratory at the University of Michigan. Students and faculty
affiliated
with our laboratory engage in a variety of scientific endeavors which
have, as a common base, the underlying
principles of fluid mechanics and transport processes. Our work
involves investigations of the respiratory, cardiovascular, and ocular
systems using both experimental (benchtop & animal) and
theoretical (analytical & computational)
approaches. Members of our group work on both fundamental fluid
mechanics problems, usually motivated by the physiological
application, and on medical applications, often in collaboration with
clinical investigators. In many instances combining
both experimentation and theory allows us to understand and interpret
experimental data in a mechanistic framework, as well
as predict/suggest and evaluate new treatment modalities to the medical
community. As evidence of our broad approach, our
work is supported by agencies which span a variety of scientific
communities - NIH, NSF, NASA and the Whitaker Foundation. We hope you
enjoy these pages and feel free to contact us on any and all topics
that may interest you.
