My research is motivated by observing the intriguing transport phenomena in microfluidic platforms, which serve as the 'magic lancets' in bridging the microscopic and macroscopic realms. Then I tend to develop theoretical models combined with experimental techniques to elucidate the underlying physical mechanisms involved behind the scene.

I have been playing the violin and practicing watercolour painting since 8 as a hobby - the beauty and complexity of art often spark a tête-à-tête with nebulous ideas in the field of physics, motivating me to embark on a research journey and explore new avenues of discovery.

Research Interests

My research is mostly focused on thermally non-equilibrium transport phenomenon in aqueous system, with applications in areas of medical diagnostics and therapeutics, drug discovery, drug delivery and controlled release, micro- and nanorobot manipulation, purification of biochemical species and water treatment.
