I am a chemical engineering/physics PhD student focused on theoretical and computational soft matter physics. Physics explains everything in the universe, from the tiniest particles to the largest galaxies.The study of soft matter systems (e.g., plastics, colloids, liquid crystals) isone of the most complex and fascinating fields, requiring a unique blend of numericaland analytical methods to address.

About my PhD research
Subject: Simulating colloidal gels with hydrodynamics
Research description: Colloidal gels are ubiquitous inboth nature and everyday life. Their unique properties and structures make themfascinating from both theoretical and industrial perspectives. Their dynamicsand structure depend on many complex factors, which are challenging to describemathematically. One of these factors is hydrodynamic interactions, themany-body emergent effects arising from the surrounding fluid's dynamics. Theapplication of external stimuli, such as shear, makes these systems even more intriguing.The primary goal of this project is to thoroughly study how thesehydrodynamically coupled systems behave under such stimuli, usingstate-of-the-art theoretical and numerical methods.
