I am a Ph.D. student at University of Southern California, working on understanding and modeling how flow physics has shaped the biological and ecological functions of cilia and ciliated systems. Using analytical and computational methods, I develop mathematical models for ciliary motion and surrounding fluid flow, and analyze how cilia-driven fluid dictate feeding performance of microorganisms and their impacts on surrounding dissolved nutrient distribution. I am interested in diffusion process, and emergent phenomena driven by active matter in living system. In a broader perspective, I am interested in natural pattern formation and evolution in the present of randomness.
