ABSTRACT:  Vascular cells adapt and respond to biomechanical forces.  The focal nature of most cardiovascular diseases has been linked to a dysfunctional response of endothelial cells and blood components to local hemodynamic forces.  My lab studies the role of hemodynamic forces in the initiation, progression and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.  In this talk I will present work we have done using three dimensional cell culture models to simulate the vascular hemodynamic environment in order to answer questions on how endothelial cells (ECs) and blood components respo

ABSTRACT:  This presentation describes my recent work  in developing small scale fluid devices, microfluidics, for energy applications and CO2 sequestration. Microfluidics has emerged over the last two decades with applications in biomedical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, and life sciences research.

ABSTRACT:  This seminar focuses on solving engineering challenges related to the continuous production of HNBR and NBR emulsion. Part 1 - Hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR) which is known for its excellent elastomeric properties and mechanical retention properties after long time exposure to heat, oil and air is produced by the catalytic hydrogenation of nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) using a semi-batch process.
