Amy Shen

OIST Provost and Professor of the Micro/Bio/Nanofluidics Unit.  Amy's research is focused on rheology and non-Newtonian fluid mechanics at the nano-biointerfaces, coupled with microfluidics, with the aid of novel 3D printing, microfabrication and imaging techniques. Her research usually combines experiments, theory, and modeling to explore the dynamics and properties of flows involving nano- or micro-structures. Her research group also develops lab-on-a-chip platforms for biosensing and disease diagnostic applications.
