I am thrilled to announce a range of exciting research opportunities in our lab for passionate and dedicated undergraduate and graduate students. These projects encompass both computational studies and experimental methods, covering areas from electronics cooling solutions to advanced health technology. If you are eager to push the boundaries of scientific understanding, this is an excellent chance to enhance your research skills.

The available research topics are as follows:

1. Radiative Cooling of Space Electronics (Experimental and Computational, Graduate level): This hybrid project combines experimental and computational work, focusing on radiative cooling methods for space electronics. A strong interest in physics, space technology, and thermal management will be beneficial for this research.

2. Machine Learning-based Force Field Development (Computational, Graduate level): This project aims to develop coarse-grained biomolecules to simulate blood clotting processes under normal physiological and specific pathological conditions. Students will employ various hybrid optimization techniques using metaheuristic approaches.

3. Micro Jet Impingement Cooling of Electronic Chips (Computational, Undergraduate level): This project delves into the computational aspects of cooling electronic chips, with a particular focus on micro jet impingement. If you are interested in thermal dynamics and its applications in the modern electronics industry, this could be an ideal project for you.

If any of these topics intrigue you and you wish to join our research team, please send me an email detailing your interest along with your most recent CV. Clearly state the project(s) you are interested in and explain why you believe you are a good fit.
