Edd, Jon Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering Research Information
Our overall mission is to study practically important intersections of the thermal sciences with biomedicine and biotechnology using experimental and numerical methods. The primary focus is on fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and phase change thermodynamics as related with cellular biology. Specific applications include improved cryopreservation of cells, continuous size-based microparticle and cell separations, & lab-on-chip devices for control of single cells. Selected Publications
