-I joined Division of Applied Mathematics and the CRUNCH Group at Brown University in 2013 as a post-doctoral research associate. My research interests at Brown is broad and focused on the multiscale, multiphysics nature of biological processes. I am mainly studying blood coagulation and thrombus biochemomechanics in the vasculature especially in aneurysms and aortic dissections.+I joined Division of Applied Mathematics and the CRUNCH Group at Brown University in 2013 as a post-doctoral research associate.

 In computational biophysics, we often use modeling and simulations techniques in one of the spatial and temporal scales: (1) Microscale with techniques such as Molecular Dynamics, (2) Macroscale with techniques such as Continuum Theory and Finite Element Methods, and (3) intermediate Mesoscales with techniques such as Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD). These methods at each scale have their advantages and limitations,​ and multiscale modeling employing techniques across two or more spatial and temporal levels is desirable, indeed, necessary for understanding many phenomena that are intrinsically multiscale. In computational biophysics, we often use modeling and simulations techniques in one of the spatial and temporal scales: (1) Microscale with techniques such as Molecular Dynamics, (2) Macroscale with techniques such as Continuum Theory and Finite Element Methods, and (3) intermediate Mesoscales with techniques such as Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD).

-Blood coagulation is a multiscale processthe mesoscale ​modeling addresses ​the associated formation of thrombus, i.e., platelet activation and aggregation,​ including interactions with red blood cells plus the accumulation of fibrin polymers. Furthermore, ​the continuum-level modeling of unsteady blood flow interactions with the thrombosed region ​has to be taken into consideration.+Blood coagulation is a multiscale process, and hence, numerical models utilize ​the mesoscale ​DPD simulations to address ​the associated formation of thrombus, i.e., platelet activation and aggregation,​ including interactions with red blood cells plus the accumulation of fibrin polymers ​as well as the continuum-level modeling of unsteady blood flow interactions with the thrombosed region.
